A luscious Bordeaux blend of predominately Cabernet Sauvignon, with a dash of Petit Verdot, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The wine’s complex flavors of black currants, clove and mocha are topped off by licorice.

Its full-bodied, rich mouthfeel carries these flavors for a long, lingering finish that loves seared steak, Gorgonzola gnocchi, beef bourguignon and ratatouille.

We believe in minimal-intervention winemaking, fermenting the grapes with indigenous yeast at moderate temperatures that allow the wine to gain flavors and color from extended skin contact. Each lot is aged separately for several months, and then blended to create a wine that is more complex than the individual parts.

After blending, the wine spent another year and half in barrel to completely harmonize before bottling.

Vineyard Notes

Our Yountville vineyard forms the heart of our Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, with grapes from our Rutherford and Calistoga vineyards rounding out the blend. We farm all of our vineyards naturally, without artificial pesticides or herbicides, and they are certified organic.

The result is a full-bodied, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon with pure flavors and a pronounced sense of place.
