Description

This rare expression of Napa Valley winemaking is one of only 60 bottles that will ever be made. Think of it as a bit of Napa Valley history in your cellar and celebrated in a glass with friends and family. Your Premiere Napa Valley wine focuses on fruit from VHR’s hillside Block 6 in the Oakville nested appellation. Tucked along the wooded hills of the Mayacamas Mountain Range, lush, aromatic Cabernet Sauvignon grapes thrive in the well-drained soil and temperate climate of this site and exude an earthy, forest-floor chaparral quality along with concentrated and expressive black fruit flavors. Harvested at optimal ripeness and meticulously sorted, this wine underwent cold-soaking, and an extended maceration. Native yeast was utlized and the wine was aged in new French oak barrels.
