Though rare, you may occasionally see an Estate Reserve Napa Cabernet for under $50, but finding a single vineyard Napa Cab for this price is essentially zero. Don’t let this one pass you by!

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.

Polished and elegantly layered Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah offers red plum and black cherry on the nose, with scent of cigar box, forest floor, bay, baking spices and vanilla. Expressive black raspberry, sassafras and smoky pepper flavors that linger with salted dark chocolate, red plum, black raspberry, and cherry on the finish.

Dark fruit aromas of black raspberry, blackberry, black cherry with sage, marjoram and baking spice. The palate full and hearty yet crisp in texture, blending dark cherry with black cardamom, white pepper, currant and dark chocolate, as the acidity and tannins push through to the finish. A gorgeous expressive wine!

A great example of where Cabernet's structure and depth are balanced by Syrah's jammy fruit-forward flavors. Savory aromas of dark berries, cassis, baking spices and vanilla that intermingle with earthy notes of dried tobacco, cigar box and saddle leather. Notes of dark fruit flavors carry on to the palate, with dark chocolate, vanilla and a hint of black currant.
