Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon is the acknowledged king of red grapes in the Napa Valley, accounting for 50% of our total production and 68% of our crop value. This variety is grown throughout the Napa Valley and achieves a variety of expression depending on its vineyard site. Its flavors display a wide variety of black fruits, including currant, cherry and plum, and often show notes of spice from oak aging.

On the palate these wines can be dense and powerful in youth, but age gracefully. When young, they are best matched with robust red meat dishes such as game and braised lamb, while older Cabernets are superb accompaniments to simply prepared roasts and steaks and aged cheese.
