Aromas of crushed violets and crème de cassis mingle with roasted espresso and shaved dark chocolate. The palate adds sweet Bing cherry fruit with complex layers of cola, star anise, clove and porcini powder. The richly textured, creamy mouth feel leads to soft, ripe tannins on the long finish.
"The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Old Block is a beauty. There are 660 cases of this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, which exhibits plenty of graphite, forest floor, blueberry and blackberry fruit and has a full-bodied mouthfeel as well as terrific intensity and richness. It is a real sleeper selection to be drunk over the next 10-15 years."
Our 2014 Kelleher “Brix Vineyard” Cabernet Sauvignon is full-bodied and intense. 100% Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon from our vineyard on the Valley floor. The supple tannins are complimented by notes of black currant, cedar, spice, and graphite. The finish is strong and smooth and this vintage is drinking beautifully now and has many years of age to come.
This Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold, vibrant, fruit forward wine that is a true representation of Oakville, Napa Valley's most coveted AVA. The supple and refined tannins are complimented by rich notes of black currant, cedar, spice, coffee and graphite. Age for 18 plus years.
