Winemaker Notes

Deep ruby in hue, the 2015 Napa Valley Cabernet presents a tantalizing study of sensory juxtapositions. On the nose, the wine entices with aromas of blackberry, Bing cherry, and delicately nuanced new oak, offset by hints of tamarind, and sweet baking spices. Displaying a notable freshness with medium acidity, the wine’s palate demonstrates layered complexity, featuring notes of dense blackberry, cherry cola, graphite and earth. Finely grained tannins from sweet oak help frame the wine, revealing a satisfying combination of sinewy agility, finesse, and a handsomely articulated finish that is as focused and direct as Rafael Nadal’s classic one-handed forehand stroke.

Blend: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon; 10% Merlot

    Lastly, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Cor Leonis is all Cabernet Sauvignon from two vineyards, To Kalon and Caldwell (which is in Coombsville). Brought up in 85% new French oak, it’s a more medium to full-bodied, fresh, focused effort that still shows plenty of the sweet 2015 fruit, which is the hallmark of this vintage. Offering complex notes of red and blue fruits, white pepper, and spice, it gains depth with time in the glass, has sweet tannins, and a great finish. Drink it any time over the coming two decades.

    Showing a deep garnet-purple color, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is scented of red and black currants, black cherries, dried herbs, earth and lavender. The medium to full-bodied palate has a nice taut structure with vibrant red and black fruit and fine-grained tannins, approachable and offering great expression.

With our mission to craft the finest wines we know how, our philosophy is rooted in our approach to winemaking. Straightforward in concept, but requiring meticulous attention to detail, we start by finding extraordinary fruit available from the most coveted vineyards in the legendary Napa Valley. While some wineries, regardless of nature's varying conditions, are tied to a specific estate or vineyard year after year, our approach allows us the flexibility to access and discerningly select grapes to our exacting standards from among the full range of Napa Valley's finest vineyard blocks.

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.
