chocolate and fresh spearmint.
Vineyard Notes
A portion of our 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from our
Heide Ranch vineyard, one of the latest additions to our
impressive vineyard portfolio. Located in the eastern part of the
Napa Valley Appellation, this region produces exceptionally ripe
fruit, giving our Cabernet Sauvignon the bold and rich
flavors that aficionados everywhere have grown to love.
Production Notes
The winter of 2013-2014 was one of the driest in California’s
history with Napa Valley receiving only half of its average
rainfall. But, with respect to grape quality, there was good news:
heavy rains in February and early March gave the vines emerging
from dormancy a rejuvenating boost. Furthermore, the overall dry
season resulted in smaller berry size with concentrated
characteristics that added depth to the fruit’s inherent flavors.
Food Pairing Notes
This is a wine to be savored with hearty fare like grilled meats,
chops, strong cheeses such as bleu and camembert or rich
chocolate desserts.
Other Notes
90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot,
3% Merlot, 2% Zinfandel and 1% Malbec
