Description

All the Cabernet lots are on the table for blending only once a year, expressly for the Premiere Reserve. Our estate Kronos Vineyard gets this one chance to come out and play with the other lots, which all hail from benchland between Rutherford and St. Helena, a very special corner of the world for Cabernet Sauvignon. I'm always looking to walk the fine line between power and elegance in my wines and to have them speak eloquently of time and place. For Premiere Napa Valley, I added the conversation between old and younger vines. The Corison Cabernet is sourced from newer vineyards, replanted due to phylloxera, whereas our Kronos Vineyard is one of the last old Cabernet vineyards in the Napa Valley, planted more than 40 years ago on St. George rootstock.
