Tasting Notes
Aromas of ripe black cherry, blackberry compote, and dark plum are complemented by a palate of juicy blackcurrant, mocha, sweet vanilla, and a touch of cedar spice. The plush tannins and round texture are perfectly balanced by a subtle acidity, showcasing the opulent and approachable nature of the vintage.
This wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered to preserve its character. Natural sediment may occur.

Download Tech SheetOur Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon from the Lincoln Creek Vineyard embodies the unique contrasts within the Napa Valley. Despite its proximity to our Winery Ranch in Stags Leap District, this wine showcases a remarkably different profile, characterized by a softer tannin structure and a fruit-forward palate. The wine presents a friendly, juicy texture with lush red fruit flavors dominating the front palate. Less new French oak and a lighter toast profile subtly enhance the mid-palate without overshadowing the wine’s naturally smooth and graceful structure. This Oakville Cabernet is a delightful mid-week luxury, perfect for elevating any casual meal.
