Winemaker Notes
Our Bordeaux-style Cabernet blend is renowned for its elegant structure, dark berry flavors, and smooth tannins. The 2000 Affinity blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, and 2% Cabernet Franc is created from premier Napa Valley floor vineyards, including our Coombsville estate, Rutherford, Oakville and Carneros districts.
Aroma: Enticing bouquet of sweet black cherry and ripe boysenberry surrounded by subtle hints of mocha, violet and spice. Flavors: Intense and complex flavors spotlight black cherry and boysenberry interwoven with mineral notes, fresh herbs and tea. Finish: Flavors continue to unfold with dark fruit, mocha, earth, and sweet oak predominating. Full-bodied yet elegant, offering mouth-filling fruit, round tannins and excellent structure for aging.

Robert Craig Winery showcases four Cabernet Sauvignons produced from Napa Valley mountain and hillside vineyards, including Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon from their estate vineyard, Affinity, a classic Bordeaux-style Cabernet, and powerhouse Cabernets from Mount Veeder and Spring Mountain. Each wine conveys a unique personality derived from the soils, climate and varietal characteristics of the growing region. Robert Craig has been a pioneer in mountain vineyard development for over 30 years. During the 1980s, he directed vineyard and winery development on Mount Veeder. Robert Craig wines debuted in 1992. The winery facility is located at 2300 feet atop Howell Mountain, with a Tasting Salon in Downtown Napa.
