We are happy to introduce our newest Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve wine, sourced exclusively from our Suscol Springs Estate Vineyard in southern Napa Valley. This blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot. We grow grapes for our Suscol Springs Cabernet Sauvignon along the Suscol watershed in the cooler southern reaches of Napa Valley. Grapevines at our Suscol Springs estate are planted amid rocky outcroppings that overlook the valley floor. The effort to develop roots in these rocky soils creates a beneficial stress that causes vines to yield smaller berries of great concentration, balanced acidity, and supple tannins.
