Alcohol %

Vineyard Notes
Our three-acre plot, located in the Coombsville appellation in the foothills of the Vaca Range, consists of alluvial soils that cover volcanic ash from Mt. George with cobblestone-strewn layers of rich, gravelly loam. This very temperate micro-climate allows the grapes to ripen slowly and steadily. The result is a powerfully structured wine with beautifully concentrated fruit.
Production Notes
Grapes were harvested in October and hand selected during the sorting process. After fermentation, the finished wine was aged in 24 months 100% new French oak barrels before bottling.
Tasting Notes
This wine exudes confidence with an inky dark hue. All the complex aromas expected of a Napa Cabernet fill the nose, vanilla bean, cassis, tobacco, and black plum are most prominent. From the first sip to the last, espresso, cocoa, and fig covers the palate. Beautifully integrated tannins and a toasted wheat finish guarantees you will not forget this wine soon.
Food Pairing Notes
A bold Cabernet Sauvignon such as Rolando Jr needs a dish to match. Roasted rack-of-lamb or braised short ribs will compliment the savory notes of the wine. A glass paired with a roaring fire in the hearth is also recommended.
