Description
This exceptional lot was selected from a 7-acre parcel on a plateau overlooking the Napa Valley at our Backus Vineyard, located in the eastern hills of Oakville. According to winemaker Craig Williams, "Backus is truly a Grand Cru vineyard, producing wines with distinctive flavors of chocolate, berry and mineral, and enough acidity to be silky and round in the mouth." We are proud to offer this special lot—a perfect expression of Oakville’s terroir.
