Vineyard Designation: The five grape varietals comprising this vintage came from four ultra-premium vineyards in Napa Valley, which are located in the sub-appellations of Spring Mountain, Howell Mountain, Soda Canyon, Wooden Valley and Carneros. Each of these vineyards was expertly manicured; every effort was made to ensure that the fruit developed its full flavor potential. Composition: 100% Napa Valley; 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot, 1% Malbec
- This wine shares some of the chocolatey characteristics of the two Merlot vintages, but there is more cassis liqueur, blackberries, blueberries, and pain grille (toast) notes in this lavishly rich, flamboyant proprietary red.Full-bodied, marvelously concentrated and extremely well-balanced, this wine's acidity, tannin, and high alcohol are completely buried beneath the complex fruit and extract of this profound offering.
