Cellar for up to 8 years. No need to decant before serving. Tony Cartlidge first dreamed of making wine in the Golden State after reading a book about great California winemakers while working on a nuclear power construction site near Washington. In 1980 Tony teamed up with local entrepreneur Glenn Browne to found a winery in a Napa Valley garage. After touring California in search of top quality fruit, the duo made their first vintage in 1981 and quickly caught the attention of the international wine media including Robert Parker who praised their “fruit forward, pure, varietally correct, delicious wines”. Today this boutique winery purchases grapes from their esteemed partner growers across the state, often focusing on lesser-known appellations which offer excellent quality and value for money. Their Cabernet Sauvignon is made in a rich and robust style which is certain to please lovers of big, bold reds. On the nose there are luscious cassis, crushed blackberry and ripe plum notes mingling with hints of cinnamon, clove and dried herbs. The first sip reveals a hearty full body, well-rounded texture and firm tannins. The long finish and intense fruity flavour profile make this a great match for barbecued meats, rib eye steak or game dishes.
