The 2006 Eponymous Napa Valley Cabernet offers scents of ripe plum, violets, berries, currants and spice that are well-integrated. Held to the light, this elegant wine shimmers with a stunning deep purple-scarlet color that announces the intensity of the grapes. The palate is equal to the lush color and bold aromas. Flavors mimic the nose, with added nuances of roasted coffee bean and nutmeg. This Napa Valley Cabernet is rich, full and round from the initial taste and continuing as it fills the mouth, leading to a long, lingering finish.

Producer Information

Robert L. Pepi knows what it’s like not to own his own name. When his family sold the renowned Robert Pepi Winery in 1994, the label lived on. But, Bob Pepi himself cannot put it on a wine label. Therefore, the first wine that Bob has made for himself since the sale of the family name has a label that reflects both his belief that “wine should be fun” and explains his predicament. Eponymous is “one for whom or which something is or is believed to be named”. Bob Pepi has given it his own playful definition, a play on words by one who is unable to use his family name on his own bottle of wine. Bob makes his wines from vineyards he specially selected in both the Napa and Sonoma Valleys.
