Winemaker's Notes:

 Our 2007 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted to highlight the best qualities of our five estate vineyards. Dark rich and extracted this wine has aromas of cassis, black cherry and currants. Balanced oak nuances add both a 'sweetness' and roundness to this aromatic and powerful wine. Extraordinarily complex, while amazingly rich and smooth in the mouth,offers superb richness and balance. Builds in intensity. The huge finishing fruit coats the entire palate.
My Notes:

About Turnbull Wine Cellars:

 In the Spring of 1993 California publisher, Patrick O'Dell, purchased Johnson Turnbull Vineyards and renamed the property Turnbull Wine Cellars. The remodeling and expansion of the facility has been completed. In addition, the wines have gone through change due to the inclusion of fruit from additional vineyards purchased by Patrick. Turnbull Wine Cellars has 145 acres of vineyards within the Oakville Viticultural Appellation representing the diverse range of microclimates and terroirs within this fabled grape-growing center of Napa Valley.
