This 2016 Cellar selection comes from one of the most exclusive sub-appellations of Napa Valley. The Spring Mountain District offers rich, volcanic soils. Aromas of black currant and ripe plum are complemented with rich blackberry flavors and a hint of graphite. This carefully selected blend continues to pickup steam into a long and concentrated finish.
A fine wine, like a family, needs to be nurtured. Cared for, never rushed; challenged, to be worthy of reward. This wine, born of robust vines that stretch with vigor from rugged soil, is that reward. Savor it now, or better yet, be patient, and allow it to mature so that you may enjoy its full character. Or cellar it and pass it on to like-minded heirs, a tribute to your taste and your delicious passion for this life.
