“Fruit from three estate vineyards-Rockerbox, Hopper House, and Yountville Ranch-have created a lush Cab that romances the nose with deep, dark aromas of black currant and espresso. Blended with fractions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot and aged just over a year in (39% new) French oak, it releases a rush of plum jam, tobacco, and leather that coincides with beefy, round tannins and bal- anced acidity. Bold and luxurious notes of vanilla bean and crushed almond accent cedar and pencil lead on the broad finish.”
