• 1.5L

Description

Cardinale, located in Napa Valley’s world-renowned Oakville nested appellation, crafts a single Cabernet Sauvignon from each vintage. The wine is a limited-production blend from one of Napa Valley’s most celebrated mountain appellations. Each of the winery’s esteemed mountain vineyards creates a beautiful note unique to their location, but the composition they create together results in a remarkable symphony of flavor and texture. Mountain terroir is essential to Cardinale’s character. While the rocky soils, steep aspects and exposed conditions are among the most challenging in California, they also produce the most structured and complex wines. Every bottle reveals the artistry of winemaker Christopher Carpenter. In the bottle, the wine is sophisticated, powerful and a true expression of Napa Valley. This unprecedented auction lot includes a hand-selected, six-vintage vertical of Cardinale library magnums from the 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015 vintages in collectible wood boxes.
