Tender is the Night
2015 Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley
Our inaugural Premiere Napa Valley venture. This brawny and powerful wine is classically Napa Valley: muscular, naturally more tannic and truly built to age. Sweet, spicy oak suggests espresso and dark chocolate with notes of cigar box unfolding in the background. Sleek, powerful and designed to express the gifts of our vineyard site with precision and finesse. F. Scott Fitzgerald would have loved this beauty.
