Blended from several sub-AVAs, including fruit from Calistoga, Oakville and Rutherford, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is a soft, approachable wine, marked by gentle leafiness and slightly lifted cherry fruit. It's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with hints of mint and an attractively dusty feel that lingers easily on the finish.
Wine Enthusiast

Opening with cherry and vanilla notes, this wine is high-toned and elegant in style, with thick tannin weight providing structure and definition. Blended with small amounts of Petit Verdot, Malbec and Merlot, it shows a wealth of dried herb, toasted oak and cassis as it builds.
Wine Spectator

Plush, with a toasty frame guiding a core of warmed plum and blackberry preserve notes, and a late tug of loam on the finish. Shows more heft than purity, but solidly built. Drink now through 2026. 1,995 cases made.
