Krutz Family Cellars Releases 2008 Napa Valley Stagecoach Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon on Heels of Back-to-Back Stellar Vintages
Each Vintage Features Art Label by Medeski, Martin & Wood Percussionist Billy Martin
2008 Vintage to be Unveiled at Warner Bros. Record’s “Vinyl Revisionists” Art Show
(Sonoma, CA, March 29th 2012) — Krutz Family Cellars announced today that it will release its 2008 Napa Valley Stagecoach Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon at Warner Bros. Records’ Vinyl Revisionists Art Show in Los Angeles. Following the micro-winery’s 2006 and 2007 vintages receiving critical acclaim, and with the art labels created by Medeski, Martin & Wood’s percussionist and visual artist Billy Martin, the wine is quickly becoming the wine and music collector’s must-have selection for the cellar. Retailing at $75 per 750ml bottle, just 205 cases were made of the highly allocated wine.
“This is a classic Napa Valley high-elevation Cabernet Sauvignon,” said winemaker and founder Patrick Krutz. “With beautiful deep purple hues, complex aromas of allspice, toasted oak, currant, boysenberry, cocoa, vanilla and tobacco leaf, this wine is very pretty, but not shy. The finish is long and lingering with a nice balance between acid and tannin and shows great aging potential. With yet another striking piece of art from Billy, I couldn’t be more excited to introduce the 2008 vintage at Warner Bros. Records’ Vinyl Revisionists Art Show.”
Happening tomorrow Friday, March 30th, Vinyl Revisionists is the first art show to be held at Warner Bros. Records’ iconic Burbank building. The event will feature artists like Tim Biskup, Sylvia Ji, and Victor Castillo, as well as Prime and Josh Petker. Each artist will revisit and reinterpret the covers of their favorite Warner Bros. Records artists’ albums. The work spans the rich, 50-year musical history of the iconic label, and will showcase imaginative interpretations of covers of albums by WBR artists past and present, including Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jimi Hendrix, Madonna, Prince, Van Halen, Roxy Music, The Smiths, and Mastodon, among others. Patrick and Rebecca Krutz will be on hand to share tastes of Krutz Family Cellars and their music-themed, second label House Band Wines.
