Description

This wine is styled to best display the Diamond Mountain region of Napa Valley. Garnet black color. A classic, high elevation approach right from the start. Rich and layered, this wine exhibits a striking core of slate and gravelly earth. Vivid dark berry, currant, and black cherry fruit throughout. Balanced, well-distributed, complex flavors. The finish is long, persistent and plush tannins invite you back for more. A powerfully delicious and well-structured cabernet with a palate-pleasing present and bright future ahead.
