    Winemaker Notes

    Deliciously pure, rich and deep, our 2012 Aquinas Cabernet Sauvignon opens with fragrant aromas of cherry preserves, tobacco leaf, molasses and vanilla from the twelve months of American Oak aging. This supple wine features tiers of cocoa nibs, blackberry compote and cranberry reduction interlacing with harmonious notes of roasted hazelnut. The four percent Petite Sirah adds intense color and ripe blueberry fruit to the palate. This wine shows tremendous depth with its balanced medium plus body and round supple tannins. It's a deliciously smooth Cabernet Sauvignon in the classic Napa Valley tradition.

    Try pairing with herb-crusted lamb chops with celery root puree, braised short ribs with buttermilk mashed potatoes or a vegetarian option like fried tofu with spicy gingersesame sauce.

    Aquinas, California
    Aquinaswines are named for St. Thomas Aquinas, the seminal 13th century Italian priest, theologian and philosopher who dedicated his life to reconciling reason and faith. Just as he challenged the assumptions of his world, we are challenging the assumptions within ours.

    Aquinas wines are born from our belief that sophisticated, luxurious wines from pre-eminent appellations should be within the reach of all. We meticulously scour Napa Valley, leveraging generations of deep relationships to find the perfect fruit. Then, we pull upon decades of award-winning winemaking—itself an inherent blend of science and mysticism—to create wines that transcend their temporal origins.

    Despite their accessibility, or perhaps because of it, Aquinas wines have been well-received by critics across the country. A string of gold and silver medals has served to further underscore the faith we hold in our founding convictions.

    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.
