Black Bart

Like the sophisticated gentleman bandit of the late 1800s who crisscrossed Northern California robbing stagecoaches, Black Bart serves as the Krupp Brothers' label for its wild-yet-sophisticated Rhone-varietal wines. Wines include two Syrahs, Marsanne, a whie blend called Black Bart's Bride, and in select years a Syrah Port.

2007 Black Bart Marsanne, Stagecoach Vineyard

Polished, complex nose; aromas of orange pith, key lime pie, white peach, stone fruits, nut, spice, apricot Danish with clotted cream. The innate generosity of the palate is tightly wound around a spine of minerality, this wine will develop superbly, gaining richness without losing its varietal identity.

2007 Black Bart Syrah Port, Napa Valley

Berry licorice fruit, spice and marzipan aromatics immediately capture your attention. A beautifully rich pallet attributed to quality fruit, not high brix levels. The wine dances across the tongue with great acidity and vibrancy, the finish is long and concentrated. Release Date: December 1, 2009

A dense, complex palate of black raspberries, blueberries, vanilla, smoky oak framed perfectly by soft, succulent tannins. The wine has great brightness and a very persistent finish.
