Waterstone Study in Blue – A Great Boutique Wine for Gift Giving

Waterstone Study in Blue from Napa Valley would make a great holiday gift for any wine lover on your list!  I love boutique wineries because the wines are wonderful and it is so much fun to discover the passion of the wine and the winemakers. 

 

Waterstone Study in Blue  2008 is a distinct blend of 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot, 25% Syrah .  It has blue hues with pronounced blueberry aromas.  It is a Bordeaux type wine that is really in a realm all it’s own.    This wine is absolutely delicious!  It has hints of blackberry, chocolate….tobacco and plum.  Study in Blue is medium bodied and expressive.  I really like dry red wine and I thought Study in Blue  was well priced and delivered a smooth and silky texture.  It was…..simply delicious!

Waterstone Winery was founded in 2000 when Philip Zorn and Brent Shortridge discovered a shared interest in creating luxury wines at affordable prices.   In fact, Waterstone is quickly becoming known for producing top-quality Napa Valley wines that delight the palate.
