Verdon Estate Cabernet\xa0is the epitome of Napa Valley Cabernet,crafted from two of the most exceptional vineyards in Oakville, Rutherford, and St. Helena. The Oakville vineyard is located on the coveted western side of the Oakville Bench, adjacent to the Napa River, resulting in grapes that deliver an opulent and concentrated flavor profile.With the addition of fruit from Rutherford and St. Helena, this wine showcases the best of Napa Valley's diverse appellations. The restrained but impressive aromas of black cherries, loamy soil, black currants, and licorice burst from the glass, setting the stage for a wine that is elegant, pure, savory, and velvety-textured. Verdon Estate Reserve No. 5 Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 is ready to be enjoyed now, but it has the structure and depth to age gracefully for another 5-6 years. |
