ORIGIN
Grape Variety:94% Cabernet sauvignon,3%Cabernet franc , 2% Merlot,1%Petit verdot.
WINE-MAKING
The grapes are hand-harvested in the cool morning. Upon arrival at the winery, the fruit is hand- sorted, gently de-stemmed and lightly crushed. During a 16-day maceration period, the new wine is transferred to French oak barrels to undergo malolactic fermentation, integrating fruit and oak flavors. The wine is blended with complementary varieties resulting in a lush and savory wine.
TASTING NOTES
The NAPA CELLARS Cabernet Sauvignon embraces the winemaker’s approachable style. Elegant and concentrated aromas of currant, olive, dried herb and toasted oak open to a soft mouthfeel of dark fruit flavors such as blackberry ,with subtle hints of green olive and caramelized toffee on the finish. The French Oak helps to soften the tannins and the understated acidity supports a balanced glass of wine .
SERVING
Enjoy the lush NAPA CELLARS Cabernet Sauvignon with rosemary pepper beef roast and for dessert, a piece of dark chocolate.
