Charles Krug Family Reserve Generations 2019 is a bold and elegant Bordeaux-style blend that reflects the legacy of Napa Valley’s oldest winery and the enduring vision of the Mondavi family. This reserve wine pays tribute to the generations of family winemakers who helped shape California’s wine history.
The 2019 vintage opens with a deep, expressive nose of ripe blackberry, pomegranate, and dark cherry layered with hints of tobacco, bay leaf, cocoa, and warm vanilla. On the palate, this full-bodied red delivers richness and structure with notes of mixed berries, toasty oak, and a subtle earthiness. The texture is polished and buttery, giving way to a long, velvety finish.
Aged in French oak, this wine has the depth and complexity to age gracefully, yet it’s approachable now with proper decanting. It pairs beautifully with grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, or aged cheeses, making it an excellent choice for celebratory dinners or thoughtful gifting.
Crafted from select estate fruit and produced in limited quantities, Charles Krug Generations represents the pinnacle of the winery’s red winemaking. With its balance of power and finesse, the 2019 vintage is a stunning example of Napa Valley excellence.

"Quietly powerful, dense with alluring oak spices and late-picked fruit flavors, this full-bodied, velvet-textured Cabernet-dominant blend is generous and inviting to drink, but also balanced and structured for the long haul. Concentrated, deep and layered, it is meant for drinking with appreciative friends or family in the future. Best from 2027-2040" |
