Vineyard Notes

Located in the heart of the Rutherford bench, a small family-owned Napa Valley vineyard devoted to producing great wines for great causes. Farmed sustainably and wines produced from this vineyard are consistently highly regarded in each vintage.

Tasting Notes

This complex wine begins with vibrant aromas of red cherry and blackberry followed by a bouquet of violets, cedar, and bittersweet chocolate completed by earthy elements such as flint and dried shells. As the wine opens up, hints of currant and vanilla are revealed. Full bodied, this wine offers up youthful tannins of great quality, enriching the mid palate mouth feel. The mouth feel is round and creamy with smooth tannins, leading to a long finish. Already showing beautifully, this wine will continue to open and gain complexity in the bottle for years to come.
