Yao Ming Lunar New Year Snake Limited Edition Red Wine

Product details

This Lunar New Year Snake Limited Edition from Yao Family is crafted exclusively from Napa Valley fruit, blending Petit Verdot, Zinfandel, and Syrah into a singular expression that celebrates both heritage and artistry. Each varietal contributes its own character, but together they create a harmonious profile that leans toward the southern end of the valley, delivering a dazzling dark garnet hue and layers of bright red to purple fruit. Presented in a striking Snake-themed design, this limited edition release reflects Yao Ming’s vision of combining cultural symbolism with the richness of Napa’s landscape.

The aromatic profile opens with enticing notes of clove, allspice, and the delicate perfume of fresh flowers. On the palate, these themes expand into vivid flavors of blueberry and boysenberry, lifted by an explosion of florals reminiscent of wildflower fields, with lavender lingering through the finish. French oak is seamlessly woven in, adding depth without overshadowing the fruit. Bold yet refined, this release pairs beautifully with a range of dishes—from the richness of rack of lamb and aged beef to the delicacy of wild-caught salmon—offering both power and elegance in equal measure.
