Varietal Makeup: 99% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petite Verdot Aging: 20 Months in new French Oak Barrels Vintage Information: Napa Valley’s 2016 Vintage was what some might call “typical”, with well-timed rain prior to and during the early growing season. The January rains left good moisture in the soil, bud-break came early and canopy growth was rapid and even. A warm but moderate summer followed, with fog mitigating the heat extremes and minimizing dehydration, leading to uniform growth overall.

Fresh apples, pear flesh, squeezed lemon and spring blossoms show on the nose of this bottling by musician Zac Brown. There is a strong sizzle of acidity to the sip, where zesty flavors of Key lime spray and Pink Lady apples arise.
