Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Deep ruby red/purple color. Quintessential Larkmead aromas of floral violet, blackcurrant, subtle herb and stony minerals that are initially tight and primary then deepen to kirsch and a suggestion of clove. Supple palate entry with creme de cassis, blackberry, gravel and a complex note of licorice. The wine’s dark brooding density becomes apparent with aeration as it broadens and coats the entire palate. Maintains great inner-mouth perfume and liveliness despite its inherent power. Tannins are rich, layeredand broad and really drive the wine to a flavor-packed lingering finish with a shot of intense dark cocoa powder and freshening acidity. Decant for an hour in its first couple of years and drink between 2011 & 2025.

    The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Solari Reserve is a 1,000-case blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot. While it reveals less up-front accessibility than the LMV Salon, it is a textbook Napa Cabernet exhibiting notes of high-class unsmoked cigar tobacco, blackberries, black currants, licorice, and graphite. With superb purity, elegance, density, and precision, as well as full-bodied power, this beauty can be enjoyed over the next 25 years.

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.
