John Anthony Vineyards
Cabernet Sauvignon
Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley
5 cases produced
Description
These five cases are 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from three small vineyards I planted in the southwest corner of the Napa Valley, just at the base of the Mayacamas in the late 1990s. As a child, I spent much of my free time with my father, Tony Truchard, learning about grape farming in the Napa Valley. These vineyard sites were selected and farmed with the goal of creating rich, silky and balanced wines. This Premiere Napa Valley offering comes from the most concentrated lots, and was aged 100% new French oak.
