Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

$70.00 SOLD OUT
/ 750 mL
100% Cabernet for the first time in a handful of years, lending a dark cherry and perfumed character to the wine, it is smooth, rich and savory. It immediately reminds us of the 2016 bottling: precise and ageworthy. We are enjoying it currently with a long decant.

Highlights
  • Varietal percentages: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Vineyard(s): Lewelling Ranch Vineyard, Rafael Vineyard, The Farella Vineyard, The Sleeping Lady Vineyard, Oakville Station
  • Vineyard Notes: Along the western hills in St. Helena, lies an incredible patch of dirt for growing Cabernet. This neighborhood has many well-known Cabernet vineyards, and at the heart of it lies Lewelling Ranch. Located just at the base of the Mayacamas range this vineyard sits in an ancient alluvial fan. This fan is part of a historic creek bed, with soils consisting of cobble, creek wash and gravelly sand (known as Cortina). This soil is quick to drain enabling natural management of the moisture in the vine's microclimate. Wines made from this neighborhood tend to be plush, fruit driven and rich. It is an old-vine planting of Cabernet Sauvignon in the south west corner of the Oak Knoll appellation. Our block jets out toward the valley and has a wonderous view. The vines date form the early 1980's and make dark, broody and powerful wines.
