RATINGS

97The Wine Advocate

Offering opulent, luxurious notes of cassis and dark chocolate, it's full-bodied, velvety and concentrated without being heavy, finishing long and rich.

96Vinous / IWC

Dried herbs, menthol, leather, spice and tobacco lend notable aromatic presence...fabulous.

96Jeb Dunnuck

...notes of red and blue fruits, crushed stone, graphite, and lead pencil. The level of minerality is something, and it's medium to full-bodied, with building tannins, great concentration, and a brilliant finish.

REGION

United States, California, Napa Valley, Mount Veeder

Mount Veeder AVA was established in 1993, though its origins as a wine producing district date to the 19th century. A German Presbyterian pastor named Peter Veeder was one of the first landowners in the area, and by 1864 one of his neighbors, a German sea captain named Stelham Wing, was producing wine commercially. The area continued to attract German agricultural entrepreneurs, some of whom established the estate that would later become the Christian Brothers Mont La Salle winery. Today the AVA includes about 1,000 acres of vineyards, most of them at relatively high altitudes. The Mayacamas vineyard, for instance, is at 2,400 feet. Cabernet Sauvignon is the most frequently planted grape, followed by Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.

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.
