Region - Rutherford, Napa Valley, California

Tasting Notes - Wine maker notes "Made entirely of old vine clone 7 Cabernet Sauvignon, a clone which is coming back in favor after many years of vineyard trials. Inky purple black color to the core, with an explosive nose of dark cassis, soaring barrel spice and bittersweet chocolate, it is loaded with dark and red fruits intermixed with that signature Rutherford dust. Expansive dark fruits mixed with tobacco and a hint minerality push waves of fruit that pump out flavor and intensity. In the mouth, the mid-palate is framed with subtle amounts of natural acidity which makes the wine expressive, and elegant with perfect extraction and persistence. The immense power and overall perfection of the vintage, display the velvet touch of natural winemaking and the precision is pure driven Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Enjoy with a nice decant or cellar for 5 years for all the complexities smooth our and come together."
