What to Expect

California's Napa Valley has been a source of world-class Cabernet Sauvignon for well over a century. Its warm climate and varied terrain allows for many styles of wine. One thread that runs through almost all the Cabernet based wines from Napa is their lush, ripe full-bodied feel and rich flavors of currant and berry. Wines from the valley floor, particularly around Rutherford, are famed for a dusty quality and those coming from the hillsides surrounding the valley, Mt. Veeder, Diamond Mountain and Howell Mountain for example, tend to be a little leaner with more obvious structural elements.

Winemakers Notes

Winemaker's Tasting Notes: A blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon with 2% Merlot, the 2002 Cabernet may be our best effort ever with this variety. Berry patch and dried flower aromas leads to a mouthwatering medium/full bodied wine packed with red fruit and spice. Refined flavors, fine tannins and plenty of core fruit for the long haul.

A blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon with 2% Merlot, the 2002 Cabernet may be our best effort ever with this varietal. An opulent nose, with blackberry, hints of leather and almond skin, leading to cherry and berry fruit on the palate, with cassis and tobacco. Aft shows peppery tannins, with lovely vanilla and mocha aromas. The long, detailed aftertaste echoes vibrant berry fruit and delicate vanilla-scented tannins. Presently drinking extraordinarily well, the 2002 vintage is an outstanding exemplar of world-class Diamond Mountain Cabernet, and truly the perfect candidate for your cellar.
