Product Description
Mount Veeder Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine offers vibrant berry and dark chocolate flavors blended with black peppercorn and graphite to create a complex and full palate. The rich, velvety structure delivers a smooth and seamless finish of cassis, blackberry pie, and rosemary. Aromas of deep cherry, plum, and vanilla intertwine with beautiful hints of anise and caramel. The first vineyard in the Napa Valley appellation to have all five of the grape varieties used in a classic Bordeaux blend, Mount Veeder Winery believes that blending is the key to crafting the most complete, balanced wine. Artisanal winemaking skills, beginning with gentle handling in the vineyard and finishing with extended barrel aging in the cellar, ensure the wines are enjoyable upon release, yet capable of graceful aging. Pair this delicious red wine with steak, pork, or a garden salad, or enjoy a glass of wine on its own. For best flavor, store this wine at room temperature, but chill it for 30 minutes before serving. Varietal: 83% cabernet sauvignon, 11% merlot, 3% petit verdot, 2% malbec, 1% cabernet franc.

Tasting PanelThe addition of small amounts of Merlot, Malbec, and Cab Franc, this mountain-grown red shows tremendous depth of character and a graceful touch. Dusty plum, coffee bean, and earth-laden fig mingle with ripe blackberry and bold tan- nins. The finish of mocha and dried flowers is memorable.

Wine SpectatorRipe and fresh, with sassafras, sweet bay leaf and savory details that lead into a juicy, compact core of cassis and dark plum compote flavors. The modestly toasty finish lets the fruit and savory sides play out, while acidity and tannins underscore everything.

A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.
