VINTAGE NOTES
Late winter rains followed by ideal spring growing conditions set the stage for the 2021 vintage. Mild temperatures punctuated this drought year with only a few heat spikes during the summer months that led to early ripening and allowed us to harvest some early blocks with incredible old-world charm and intriguing complexity. Grapes that were harvested later benefitted from the longer hang time and ripened perfectly, displaying great depth with distinct regional character. The ideal weather of 2021, coupled with lower yields, produced wines that offer intense aromatics and flavors with excellent aging potential.

VINEYARD SOURCES
Located south of the town of Napa, rolling hills are dominant in the Coombsville AVA with altitudes that reach almost 1,900 feet on the slopes of Mt. George. Volcanic ash from Mt. George and the alluvial flows that followed have created gravelly loam and rocky volcanic soils with ideal drainage, enhanced by the daily cooling winds of San Pablo Bay that makes this region ideal for all five Bordeaux varieties.

WINEMAKER NOTES
Our winemakers blended 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot to create this vibrant expression of Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine was fermented in 50% French oak, 40% new and 60% two and three-year old-barriques and 50% in stainless steel tanks followed by aging for 19 months

NOSE: Bright alluring fruit aromas of ripe black cherry, raspberry and blackberry preserves are further enhanced by notes of sarsaparilla, fig, violets, dark earth, cured bresaola and toasted French oak.
PALATE: A youthful, textural mouthfeel supports intense berry and plum fruits that coalesce with flavors of cocoa, new leather, cedar and fresh forest floor.
