The blend draws on the classic Napa appellations, where alluvial valley soils and the region's characteristic warm days and cool nights produce Cabernet of depth, structure, and remarkable aromatic complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine offers a refined, Bordeaux-influenced personality: cassis, tobacco leaf, dried herbs, and subtle cedar on the nose, with a full, velvety palate, polished tannins, and a long finish with lingering dark fruit and mocha. This is not a fruit-bomb Napa Cab, it is a wine of restraint and elegance, built for the table and for those who appreciate a more classical California red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFrom the ground where Napa Valley's story began.
