80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Malbec, 5% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot, 4% Syrah
Elevation: Valley floor – 1,200 ft.
The 2016 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is carefully blended to achieve power and balance. We particularly appreciate the opportunity to use high elevations (Baker Vineyard in Atlas Peak is at 1,200 ft.) with their intense tannins and color, then blend and civilize them with vineyards from the valley floor. Windy Flats is on the western foothills in Wooden Valley, and Beau Terroir is in the Napa-Carneros foothills. Beau Terre, Flat Rock, and Apallas are on the valley floor. The Malbec, Merlot, and Petit Verdot elevate the nose and display the fruit and oak spice. The wines from 2016 benefitted from a decent growing season with gentle roller coaster temperatures, slightly less than average winter rains, and a few hot spells.
Cooperage: 22 months in 85% new oak as follows: 10% American (Canton Grand Cru), 75% new French Oak (Treuil, Tonnelerie O, Nadalier, and Remond)
