2017 TORCIA Atlas Peak Cabernet Sauvignon
Wines
In Stock
Deep and brooding in color as well as nature, the thin, tufa soils of Atlas Peak grow wines with an edgy character. The nose has hues of blue fruit and a hint camphor.
The wine hits the palate at breakneck speed, flooding the senses with its assertive nature. Ripples of blueberry gum, tart red current, dark black chocolate and a hint of baking spice. Tight grained tannin and brite acidity create a mouthwatering finish.

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
The Atlas Peak appellation sits high above the valley floor bordering the east side of Napa Valley. The elevation provides warm days and cooler nights during the growing season. Made up of decomposed volcanic rock, the shallow soils of Atlas Peak’s vineyards help produce small, concentrated berries that provide big tannic structure and a leaner style of Cabernet Sauvignon.
Vineyard Elevation: 1722 FT.
Production Notes
Cooperage: 25% New Oak, French and American
