World’s End Stir It Up

World's End is a Californian wine producer, known for high-quality Napa red wines. The label is an extension of the JCP Maltus/SCEA Château Teyssier group, whose key estate is Château Teyssier in Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux. World's End was started in 2008 by Jonathan Maltus, who had made a name for himself in Bordeaux as an early garagiste producer. Maltus had his Bordeaux winemakers – also consultants at Château Cheval Blanc – make the wines of World's End, which premiered to immediate critical success. World's End focuses on red wines predominantly from Bordeaux varieties, especially Cabernet Sauvignon, all produced in limited quantities.

This wine is hugely robust in concentration and power, a study in mountain-grown brambly berry and serious tannin. Bark, pencil and a wealth of spiced plum form the core of its character, with secondary elements of cherry and cigar box coming into play over time.
