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.

Our 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon has typical Cabernet aromas and a long, lingering aftertaste, coating your tongue with a gentle layer of soft tannins (sometimes called Rutherford dust) and mouth-filling flavors of currant, blackberry, spice and chocolate to prolong your enjoyment. It is structured much like a classic Bordeaux with a solid base of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon blended with 2.5% Merlot and 2.5% Cabernet Franc to create a unique wine with great complexity, perfect balance, and a deep garnet color. Like all of our Cabernets, this vintage was built for the cellar and will improve with age read more...
