Pradis Vineyards – “Brilliance” Red Wine – 2021
Napa Valley, California, USA 🇺🇸

Overview
A powerful, Cabernet-driven Napa red that lives up to its name. Deeply concentrated, meticulously crafted, and designed to make an impression from the first sip. The 2021 vintage shows remarkable purity of fruit, structure, and precision, the kind of wine that immediately delivers the “whoa” factor.

Aromas & Flavors
Black cherry, cassis, and dark plum layered with cocoa dust, graphite, cedar, and a hint of warm spice. The fruit expression is bold yet clean, with evolving notes that unfold as the wine opens.

Mouthfeel
Full-bodied with firm, polished tannins and great mid-palate density. Multilayered and progressive, it carries intensity without heaviness. The finish is long, structured, and confidently built.

Food Pairings
Ribeye with rosemary butter, slow-braised beef short ribs, grilled portobello mushrooms, pecorino romano, or a peppery New York strip.

Verdict
A striking, expressive Napa Cabernet-style red that overdelivers on impact and finesse. If bold structure, richness, and precision are your style, Brilliance stands tall among the emerging stars of modern Napa craftsmanship.

Did You Know?
Pradis Vineyards established the “Brilliance” label to showcase small-lot Cabernet expressions sourced from select hillside parcels, focusing on concentration, purity, and minimal intervention winemaking to let the vineyard speak with clarity.
