She's back. After twelve years, Faithful Friend returns. In 2013, the very first wine to carry the McClain name was a Bordeaux-style blend called Faithful Friend. It sold out. It became the bottle people asked for by name, the one they saved for anniversaries, the one they wrote to us about years later. We only ever intended to make it again when we had fruit worthy of the label. The 2021 vintage is that fruit — and it has spent the last five years in French oak, waiting. 2021 Faithful Friend |
