RATINGS

96+ The Wine Advocate

...beautiful blueberry compote, plum preserves and warm cassis notes plus wafts of candied violets, cedar chest and iron ore with an earthy touch of underbrush. Full-bodied, rich and seductive, the palate has a wonderfully plush texture and just enough freshness to support the generous black fruit preserves and earthy/minerally nuances, finishing very long and fragrant.

95Vinous / IWC

...a gorgeous wine. Dark, intensely mineral and savory... Dark, sumptuous and mysterious, with tremendous character...has a lot going on...full of energy...superb.

94Jeb Dunnuck

...terrific...textbook Bordeaux-like aromas and flavors of black and red fruits, tobacco, charcoal embers, and earth. With a complex herbal character, medium to full body, beautiful purity and elegance, and a great finish...

REGION

United States, California, Napa Valley, Coombsville

Coombsville AVA is one of Napa Valley’s newer appellations, having received its official designation only in 2011. Tucked just to the northeast of Los Carneros and a few minutes’ drive east of downtown Napa, the Coombsville appellation is relatively large at a total of 11,000 acres. The elevation varies from 100 to 1,000 feet, and the climate is moderated by marine breezes from the San Pablo Bay. The main grape varieties here are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Syrah and Pinot Noir.

TYPE

Red Wine, Cabernet Sauvignon

One of the most widely grown grape varieties, it can be found in nearly every wine growing region. A cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc. It’s a hardy vine that produces a full-bodied wine with high tannins and great aging potential.
