Beautiful deep red color. Silky tannins complement a wealth of structured, luscious cherry and cassis in this wine, blended with nearly 13% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Amidst an undercurrent of toasted oak and vanilla are length and complexity.

Producer Information
Oakville AVA is a site that is exposed to constant and intense daily sunshine. This results in grapes that possess extremely ripe tannins, contributing to the unique elegance and approachability of our wines. Because of the ‘magic’ of this place and to ensure we produce wines reflective of the site, every step in the winemaking and viticulture process is first class. Oakville East’s multi-vineyard Oakville locations surround some of California’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon wines, including Joseph Phelps Backus, Dalle Valle, and Sir Peter Michael vines, and are perched above Rudd, Gargiulo and Screaming Eagle.
