RATINGS

100Robert M. Parker Jr.

Utterly perfect... ...awesome intensity boasting an opaque purple color in addition to a brilliant floral-scented bouquet displaying aromas of cassis, black raspberries, black fruit, and forest floor. Multilayered with terrific intensity...

96Wine Spectator

A tremendous effort, dense and chewy, at points rustic but deeply concentrated, with a medley of dark berry fruits, loamy earth, mineral, sage and cedar, coming together nicely and maintaining a tight focus through the finish...

91-93Stephen Tanzer

Cassis, cocoa powder and dusty oak on the rather candied nose. Fat, sweet and fine-grained, with superripe, dense flavors of dark berries and dark chocolate. Finishes very long and sweet, with substantial ripe, building tannins...

REGION

United States, California, Napa Valley, St. Helena

St. Helena AVA is at the northern end of Napa Valley just north of Rutherford and south of Calistoga. It is a relatively warm climate thanks to the Mayacamas Mountains on its western edge, which protect it from Pacific Ocean fog. Out of the 9,000 acres in the appellation, some 1,500 are under vine. The principal grapes grown in St. Helena are the Bordeaux grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. St. Helena is considered prime wine producing territory, and it was one of the first important wine producing regions in northern California. The legendary Charles Krug founded his winery just north of the town of St. Helena in 1873, and today the appellation is home to many prestigious producers, including Abreu, Grace Family and Spottswoode.

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.
