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

From the time the fruit was picked, this vintage has shown greatness that has carried right through its barrel aging to the bottle. The wine was bottled in August 1996. The 1994 ZD Cabernet Sauvignon will continue to develop in complexity with bottle age. Critics have acclaimed 1994 as the vintage of the decade. This wine gives credence to that claim. Dark in color, the 1994 ZD Cabernet Sauvignon offers complex aromas of black cassis, chocolate, tobacco, coffee and ripe berries. In the mouth, the wine introduces soft, mouth-filling flavors and excellent balance that lingers into a long, rich finish.
