The 2018 vintage was ideal for Bordeaux varietals on Mt. Veeder. The growing season saw little fog and the fruit ripened along a nearly perfect curve. The 2018 Reserve-style Cabernet is bold and perfectly balanced. Dark fruit and mineral undertones create an experience that excites with a fresh mid-palate and finishes with deep complexity.
This young and vibrant Cab packs a punch! With bright blackberry and dark cherry, and notes of tobacco and baking spice; the long finish makes for a delicious and decadent wine. Bright acidity gives way to supple tannins, which make this wine excellent for pairing with a wide range of foods. From steak to pasta to tacos, this wine will brighten up any meal. Drink now or cellar for a decade.
A beautiful combination of fruit, elegant and rich textures makes this a delightful drinking Sauvignon Blanc. This wine shows bright, clean notes of grapefruit, herbs, orange peel and honeydew melon which comes together into a medium-bodied, food-friendly wine.
As with other 2015 Cabernets, the Oakville is startling for its sheer size and weight. The older vines deliver classic black raspberry, licorice, espresso bean and crushed stones in the nose and on the palate. The tiny yields are responsible for the intensity of the color and structure this year. This beautiful wine should show well upon release, but a year or two (or a decade) of cellar time will help the wine show its best.
