Napa Valley is known the world over for fine Cabernet Sauvignon. Vineyards here are blessed with a great diversity of soils and microclimates. This Cakebread Cellars Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is blended from special spots throughout the region, including the renowned Cab appellations of Rutherford and Oakville, which impart classic Napa Valley bold fruit intensity, as well as the warmer Calistoga area to the north and the cooler southern reaches of the Suscol watershed, which contribute layers of complexity and depth of flavor.

The wine reveals aromas of ripe blackberry and boysenberry with hints of dark chocolate and sweet oak. On the palate, the dark fruit is balanced by fresh acidity and lush tannins that carry all the way over a lingering, elegant finishwith just a kiss of minerality.
