Our 2017 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a densely layered wine showcasing plush notes of cherry cobbler and wild blackberries backed by hints of cedar and fresh herbs. Full-bodied and elegant, this Cabernet has a polished mouthfeel and an exceptionally long finish.

WINEMAKER NOTES

Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes were carefully destemmed and transferred to upright tanks for a two-day cold soak. The wine saw 15 to 20 days of maceration time and was pumped over two to three times daily to build its round, elegant mouthfeel. Each lot was aged and evaluated separately, with the final blend taking place in May 2019. In total, the wine aged for 16 months in a combination of French and American oak barrels (29% new).

VITICULTURE NOTES

Grapes for this wine were selected from several of our premium Napa Valley vineyards, including Cypress Ranch Vineyard, Sun Lake, and Sage Canyon. This allows us to craft a complex Cabernet Sauvignon that represents both high elevation and valley floor fruit in a beautifully balanced blend. In 2017, ample winter rains fueled vine growth early in the season –steady warmth in the summer and fall followed, leading to a slightly early harvest with ripe, fruit-driven intensity.

What is Prosecco?

Prosecco is a bright and versatile Sparkling Wine named for the Italian region from which it comes.

Legally, all Prosecco wines must be sources and made from grapes grown within the official boundaries of this region. Within this area, the Veneto zone grows the revered Glera grapes used to make our La Marca Prosecco sparkling wine.

With a delicate, golden straw color and sparkling with lively effervescence, the La Marca Prosecco taste offers hints of ripe lemon, green apple and grapefruit framed by mineral undertones. The palate is fresh and clean, with aromas of fresh citrus, honeysuckle and white flowers.
