Coombsville District is one of the premier sub-regions within the Napa Valley, with its proximity to the Bay leading to a cooler growing season and more elegant wines. While Cabernet does well in the warmer regions to the north in Napa, the Coombsville District presents a more elegant, refined Cabernet, with stunning depth. The 2015 vintage was small in yield, however the wines produced were extremely well extracted.

Exceptional
Deep garnet-purple in color and strides confidently out of the glass with aromas of rich of crushed blueberries, ripe blackberry, cherry, cassis, tobacco, and hints of lightly toasted vanilla. Delivers a full-bodied palate chock full of black fruits, framed by rich and ripe structured, yet smooth tannins with a bold freshness.
