Brokenrock SV
2015 Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley
The single-vineyard Brokenrock SV Lot is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. The renowned Brokenrock Vineyard lies on the southwest shoulder of Atlas Peak, and was designed and developed by winegrower and vineyard architect, Bill Hill. The rocky mountain soils combine with cooling ocean breezes and the strong southwest sun to produce wines that are intensely flavored and yet elegant and beautifully aromatic. This is Napa Cabernet at its best. The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon by Prime Solum, crafted from Brokenrock Vineyard by Bill and Prime Solum winemaker Patrick Mahaney is a memorable wine, classically rendered. Alluring aromas that entice and invite … beautiful flavors of great intensity … mouthwatering lushness … these describe the mountain grown 2015 Brokenrock Cabernet!
