75 CL, 14.5% ABV
The 2015 growing season in Napa Valley started out with unseasonably warm temperatures in the late winter and early spring. This resulted in an early bud break and bloom. Colder temperatures in May (during the peak of bloom) caused uneven fruit set which ultimately resulted in a much smaller crop in 2015, compared to the three abundant vintages that preceded it. The resulting wine displays an intriguing purity of flavor, and rich density while driving on freshness.
68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc,
2% Petit Verdot
Palate: Dark berries and black cherry aromatics lead to a dense core of cassis. Field ripe strawberries, crushed blackberries and brooding blue tones encapsulate powerful textural highlights. Fantastic density and weight, with an expanding midpalette that turns to purity and uplift in finishing.
