RATINGS

95Jeb Dunnuck

From a tiny 6.75-acre vineyard in St. Helena composed of rocky, darker soils, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Tournahu Vineyard is a full-bodied, forward, fleshy, even flamboyant effort that’s loaded with earthy black fruits, tobacco, and chocolate. With moderate tannins, fruit galore, and some Old World, savory, meaty characteristics developing with time in the glass...

93Vinous / IWC

...emerges from a parcel of old-vine Clone 7 Cabernet. Deep, layered and sensual, the Tournahu shows all the richness that is typical of Saint Helena's Northern Corridor. Inky blue and purplish berry fruit, licorice, chocolate, menthol and new leather build into the potent finish. Time in the glass brings out a bit of sensuality.

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.
