Wine Story

A night of bad intentions.

Fueled by a dash of mischief and heavy on late-night attitude, Dirty Looks is a Napa Valley red blend with a completely defiant soul. It bottles the energy of torn fashion mags, razor-sharp style, and the hazy, smoke-filled air of a basement after-hours. This isn’t a bottle to lock away in a cellar; it’s a heavy pour meant to be cracked open on a chaotic kitchen counter and passed around until the house lights come up.

Two grapes, one valley, zero pretense. This blend combines the bold structure of valley-floor Cabernet Sauvignon with the savory, aromatic edge of hillside Cabernet Franc. Shaped by blazing afternoons and freezing marine fog, it’s a high-energy Napa red built for a heavy pour on a chaotic kitchen counter.

The goal in the cellar was simple: maximize the attitude, keep the balance effortless. We matched the grapes up like a classic duet, using the high-energy, savory acidity of Cabernet Franc to cut through rich fats, while the Cabernet Sauvignon drives a plush, heavy-hitting core of dark fruit. We backed off the oak to let the valley’s natural vibrance take center stage.

Aromas of bruised blackberry, dark cassis, and black licorice layer with savory dried sage and a hit of smoky espresso. On the palate, the ink-dark fruit is driven by a razor-sharp acidity and heavy, gripping tannins that cut right through rich meats and charred crusts. Skip the decanter. Pair this wine with a wood-fired pizza, a smashed double-cheeseburger, or late-night street tacos.

There's plenty of night left. If you’re ditching the mainstream or just sharing a laugh with people who get it, this blend is your co-conspirator. Go ahead and kill the house lights. Whether you’re crashing on the couch or fueling a late-night debate, Dirty Looks brings the energy. The seal is broken, and a blend with this much attitude was never meant to be drunk alone.
