Tasting Notes
Une Vallée has been the flagship red wine of Saviah Cellars since 2000, a blend that embodies both tradition and excellence. The 2023 vintage continues this legacy with remarkable depth and balance. Aromas of black cherry, plum, and ripe berry are layered with subtle notes of cedar, graphite, and mocha. On the palate, the wine is supple and refined, offering flavors of dark cherry, blueberry, and a touch of spice framed by polished tannins. The finish is long and elegant, a hallmark of this Bordeaux-style blend and a testament to over two decades of dedication to crafting this age worthy wine. Enjoy!
Drink 2026-2046.
