SOLD OUT

Cabernet  for the true Cabernet lover! 2 small vineyards in Napa Valley make up this blend  - 75% from the foothills near the Rutherford/St. Helena border, that vineyard brings the ripe cherry and cassis, trimmed in exotic aromas of cedar and sun-baked thyme – the other piece is an older 1 acre vineyard we farm north of Calistoga  -- it adds the blackberry fruit and darker layers like coffee, cocoa and tobacco to the rich, layered blend.

The combination is truly masculine and powerful, like great Cabernet should be… but even as consistently rich and full flavored as this wine is  (the ‘97 was named in the “Top 20 Wines of the Vintage" by the New York Times and the 2001 recently received a 93 point score) it finishes with a delightful, smooth texture – tannins that are mouth coating yet supple; drinkable yet age-worthy.

Always limited and always a winner.
