Jean Edwards Cellars
Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley
5 cases produced
Highlights
- Owners Karen and John Troisi present Trois Cinq, a blend of three special lots for our fifth Premiere Napa Valley offering
- Your wine is comprised of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon (75% Yates-Mount Veeder; 20% Stagecoach) and 5% Malbec (Rutherford)
- Sexy and seductive, the wine has a beautiful entry, a fleshy mid-palate, and a long, refined finish
- A “wow” wine, true to the Jean Edwards Cellars style—approachable early and built to age gracefully
Description
Your Premiere Napa Valley lot was crafted from three special vineyard blocks and hand-selected barrels, all contributing to this one-of-a-kind offering.
The nose is floral with violets, blueberries, mulberries and dried roses. The mouth is layered with blue and dark black fruit (blueberries and blackberries), followed by hints of earth and spice.
The wine is layered and structured, and medium-to-full bodied. True to the Jean Edwards Cellars style, the wine is enjoyable in its youth but built to age gracefully.
