TASTING NOTES This is a powerful, classically structured wine made in a full-bodied style that possess underlying grace. Our signature Cabernet commences with inviting cassis, tobacco, and cocoa aromas. In the mouth, gorgeous depth and complexity shine with hints of coffee bean, nutmeg, and toasted oak. The tannins are finely ground and sweet, providing an elegant and expressive finish. 

WINEMAKER NOTES We highlight the beauty and complexity of our valley in this appellation-designated wine, a seamless blend of Cabernet Sauvignon with a splash of Merlot to add a touch of softness and suppleness, Petit Verdot to add color and structure, and Cabernet Franc to provide polish and finesse.

SOURCING Sourced primarily from our estate S&J Vineyard in Napa’s Capell Valley and our Benjamin Vineyard located on the valley floor in the heart of Rutherford.
