2015 Cabernet Sauvignon
Chiles Valley District
Our 2017 Premiere Napa Valley offering will be the best barrel of the best cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon from our Chiles Valley District vineyard that we have farmed organically since 1974. Our winemaker, Molly Lyman, will pinpoint the moment in this unique wine’s life where the impact of barrel aging has distinguished it from its peers, an undertaking that will require sampling each individual barrel in the entire vintage.
