Heir Apparent Proprietary Red 2018 | Plush, Juicy & Spicy | Made for Steak
The Heir Apparent Proprietary Red 2018 drinks well above its price class and seems determined to make a play for the throne with its arresting aromas and bold flavors. Balance is a big factor, and lively fruit joins gentle oak alongside soft tannins and tangy acidity. Approachable and food-friendly now, this is another royally good offering from Grand Napa. This cries out for red meat with an herbal twist. Think New York steak with thyme and garlic butter. Oh my…run, don’t walk for this pairing!

An Unfair Advantage
If all wines were created equal, then their flavor profiles would be rather boring. Luckily, that is generally not the case—especially when it comes to proprietary red blends which allow winemakers to craft signature wines with the finest fruit they can get their hands on. As the wine opens up, these flavors are balanced with soft tannins, tangy acidity, and a long finish that is a great compliment to a wide range of comfort foods and spicy cuisine.
