Bordeaux Blend "Memoir" Ackerman Family Vineyards, Napa, CA, 2019

A pleasing balance of rich while vibrant aromatics followed by bright fruits and light spice carried by palate coating, fine tannins and a lengthy close. — Elaine Chukan Brown

Vintner and Philanthropist, Lauren Ackerman, helped found AFV in 1994 after purchasing the 15.5 acre "Stonehaven" property in Napa's up and coming Coombsville district. The following year the first experimental wine was produced and in 2003 the company produced it's first commercial wine, a Cabernet Sauvignon from the Stonehaven Estate. In 2009, AFV became the first certified organic vineyard in the Coombsville AVA. Today, Ackerman Family Vineyards produces an estate-grown 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, in addition to Memoir, A bordeaux style blend, Alavigna Tosca, A Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese blend and Sauvignon Blanc
