2012 NAPA CABERNET
Medium Brick red color with rich, sappy French oak notes with ripe black cherry and cassis. The palate is supple and ripe with light cocoa and sweet dark chocolate covered cherry notes. The palate is super concentrated and reveals a core of ripe fruit from huckleberry to plum and then back to cherry again. The cassis notes reappear on the palate and finish with soft and elegant tannins, which will allow for extended cellaring through 2030.
This wine is clearly a cellar candidate from an exceptional vintage. We only produced a couple hundred cases so this will be a rare short offering.
This wine is best with beef tenderloin or slow cooked short ribs with parsnip mashed potatoes and English peas. Most heavy bodied Napa Cabernets require decanting and this wine is no exception, so let it breathe for an hour after opening. This wine is also fun to drink on its own or with a rich chocolate dessert.
2011 THE SCRAPPER, CABERNET FRANC
The color of this wine demonstrates its concentration with a deep plum black cherry hue. The wine is very extracted due to low yielding (2 tons per acre) yields which express amazing varietal concentration. The aromas show ripe black cherry and cassis notes and lead to a silky entry on the palate which is very supple with a sweet core of fruit followed by structured tannins, black pepper, leather and grippy plum andripe cherry flavors. The wine finishes with the overall strength we expect from Cabernet Sauvignon withthe rare dignity few Scrappers (Cab Francs) possess.Try it with grilled Pork Chops, seasoned lamb onthe spit or grilled bone-in Rib Eye steaks with soft polenta and roasted brussel sprouts. It’s fantasticwith chocolate (anything) and will stand up to a Flourless Chocolate cake.
