Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The aromatics are rich with blueberry, dark cherry, violets, toasted oak and spice. Your palate is greeted with intense ripe blueberry, racy black currant, cocoa, baking spices, graphite, fresh violets and cigar box. In your mouth it delivers warm graham cracker, red current, melted licorice, tobacco, cedar allspice, boysenberry and violets all entertain your senses and carry through on the finish. The broad and full spectrum of fruit, firm supportive tannins, expansive juicy mid-palate, savory baking spice and noteworthy minerality conspire to provide you with a wine that may be enjoyed now, or cellared for many years.

Professional Ratings

  • 92
    Rich acidity and dense tannins lock this Cabernet in a veil of toughness—despite its flashy, elaborate black currant, dark chocolate and cedar flavors. The dryness and elegant balance strongly suggest its ageability.

Seavey Vineyard, California
Seavey Vineyard Winery Image
In the 1870s – when Conn Valley Road was little more than a wagon trail – the land which we now farm was planted with grapes to make a “Claret of high repute.” This wine was judged by the St. Helena Star to be “as fine as one might find anywhere.” Commonly known as the Franco-Swiss Farming Company, this was the pioneering vineyard and winemaking operation of Conn Valley. After roughly thirty years of producing great wines, the company dissolved due to the impact of a phylloxera infestation and Prohibition. For more than a half century, cattle roamed the land and grain was farmed but no more grapes were cultivated until Bill and Mary Seavey acquired the land in 1979. Bill and Mary set out to revive the original vineyard, planting the south-facing hillsides of Conn Valley near Lake Hennessey. By 1990, we had remodeled an 1881 stone dairy barn into a small winery and began producing small quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Small blocks of Merlot and Petit Verdot were also added along with a second winery building which includes an underground wine cave.

One of the most prestigious wines of the world capable of great power and grace, Napa Valley Cabernet is a leading force in the world of fine, famous, collectible red wine. Today the Napa Valley and Cabernet Sauvignon are so intrinsically linked that it is difficult to discuss one without the other. But it wasn’t until the 1970s that this marriage came to light; sudden international recognition rained upon Napa with the victory of the Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars 1973 Cabernet Sauvignon in the 1976 Judgement of Paris.

Cabernet Sauvignon undoubtedly dominates Napa Valley today, covering half of the land under vine, commanding the highest prices per ton and earning the most critical acclaim. Cabernet Sauvignon’s structure, acidity, capacity to thrive in multiple environs and ability to express nuances of vintage make it perfect for Napa Valley where incredible soil and geographical diversity are found and the climate is perfect for grape growing. Within the Napa Valley lie many smaller sub-AVAs that express specific characteristics based on situation, slope and soil—as a perfect example, Rutherford’s famous dust or Stags Leap District's tart cherry flavors.
