Description
Owners Karen and John Troisi have created a very special wine for their inaugural Premiere Napa Valley offering - "Trois" (meaning three). This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wine was crafted from three vineyards in three different appellations - Stagecoach Vineyard (Pritchard Hill); Yates Family Vineyard (Mt. Veeder) and an historic vineyard in Rutherford. The wine demonstrates a solid core of dark mountain fruit while the mid-palate shines from the influence of Rutherford - luscious, opulent fruit with hints of dust. A delicious combination of mountain and valley floor!
