Bargetto Winery 2002 LA VITA

Bargetto Winery's Santa Cruz Mountains LA VITA wine is released each year with a brand new label, one that showcases “wine in art.” For thousands of years wine has been an integral part of life in western civilization: economically, religiously, and perhaps most importantly, aesthetically. Part of the wonderful legacy of wine is that down through the ages, wine had been proudly portrayed in art, from the Egyptians to present day. Each year, the LA VITA SERIES showcases one masterpiece in which wine has been portrayed. The 2002 LA VITA label features Vendangeuse “The Grape Picker” (oil on canvas) by William Bouguereau (1825-1905).

Bargetto Winery's 2002 LA VITA displays deep ruby color. The expansive bouquet shows an intriguing blend of plums, spice and cedar. The five years of aging delivers a wine with a velvety palate, rich flavors and a delicate oak finish.
