Buccella
Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley
5 cases produced
Description
A one-of-a-kind indulgence from Buccella, handcrafted by our winemaking team of Celia Welch and Rebekah Wineburg. We’ve created a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from vineyards in Yountville, Coombsville and Carneros. Quintessentially Buccella, yet unlike any wine we have ever produced, this wine fills the glass with the deepest purple color and entices the nose with plenty of luscious dark fruits and delicious toasty oak essence. Its ample, juicy fruit is smooth at entry, displays a velvety mid-palate and finishes with a taste of silky Valrhona chocolate and supple tannin. Go ahead….indulge!
Aging Process
22 months in 100% new French Oak
