"This dense ruby-hued cabernet sauvignon leads with wildly-aromatic black and red currants and floral notes of violet, lavender and rose. Cracked pink peppercorn and savory spices give further depth to the aromatics. On the palate sumptuous blackberries and ripe Bing cherries meld with hints of kola nut, cordovan leather and dark mole. Wonderful tannin structure carries decadent layers of chocolate raspberry cake and crème de cassis into a long, lingering finish."

"A bouquet of ambrosia with orchard and tropical fruit are framed by hints of honeysuckle and praline. The palate is smooth and broad with notes of pineapple cake, vanilla bean and citrus crème brûlée. The finish is nuanced and lingering with apple blossom and macadamia."

"The debut vintage of this cabernet sauvignon from the Calistoga AVA, Napa Valley comes from deep, fertile slopes of our small, 10-acre estate in the northeastern Calistoga benchlands. Red winter fruit aromas of plum and pomegranate are tinged with hints of tobacco leaf and old leather. The palate is focused with cassis, wild blue flowers and dusty minerality opening to brambly berries, cocoa nib and holiday spices. The texture is sturdy with dusty tannins and a broad, enveloping finish."
"The first release of our celebrated hillside vineyard in the foothills of the Mayacamas mountain range, the Twisted Oak Vineyard in Oak Knoll District. The purity of fruit, aromatic complexity and broad structure from this well drained mountainside vineyard offering is distinct from all our single vineyard cabernet sauvignons. A bouquet of black and red berries and stone fruit, licorice and cedar. The flavors are deep and explosive. Bramble berry, Morello cherry and pomegranate layered with lilac, dark chocolate and dusty crushed stone. Bracing acidity and the grainy tannins evolve to a long, velvety finish."
An uneventful and easy growing season until mid-October rainstorms. Caramel and golden tones are perfumed with ripe passionfruit, baked lychee and framed by beeswax and toasted vanilla bean. Flavors of warm mango, tangerine marmalade, gingersnap and sumac have a bright energy and blossom with aeration.
