Block 203
2014 Cabernet Sauvignon
Mount Veeder
This rare expression of Napa Valley winemaking is one of only 120 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. During the outstanding 2014 vintage, Newton’s Block 203 was identified early on as the parcel that represented the very best of the vintage, the vineyard and the nested appellation. The berries for your Premiere Napa Valley Mount Veeder 100% Cabernet Sauvignon were hand-picked and individually sorted before crushing. Fermentation lasted 10 days, followed by a further 35 days of post-maceration. The final wine expresses inky, cassis qualities and a fine gravelly structure. A wine certain to cellar well for a generation.
