Description
This exclusive offering, handcrafted by consulting winemaker Paul Hobbs, is a distinctive Cabernet Sauvignon from a single vineyard block on our estate at the top of the Diamond Mountain District. Specially selected to showcase the volcanic mountain soil and terroir of this block, this wine is an expression of the powerful yet elegant fruit that results from a higher elevation, cooler temperatures and a longer growing season. Full-bodied, with black and deep red fruit flavors, hints of earth, spice and cedar, this Cabernet Sauvignon embodies CONSTANT Diamond Mountain Vineyard – rugged and mountainous but marked by cellar-worthy, timeless elegance. At over 2,000 feet of elevation, CONSTANT Diamond Mountain Vineyard is one of Napa Valley’s highest estates. Producing collectible wines since the mid-1990s, we specialize in mountain Cabernet Sauvignon that is reflective of the very best of Diamond Mountain District, high above the clouds and overlooking the Napa Valley.
