Description
This single vineyard blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petite Verdot and Merlot was produced from the Far Niente Vineyard in Oakville, one of our estate vineyards and the cornerstone of our Cabernet program. Just like a one-of-a-kind car, known as a "one off", this collectible wine is a "one off" from the Stelling Vineyard -- no other barrels were produced. Extended maceration and approximately 18 months of 100% new French oak have crafted a richly fruited wine with notes of black fruits and cassis, wrapped around a core of dense, yet supple tannins in a polished and elegant presentation.
