Tasting Notes: Intense aromas of black plum, raspberry, and cassis; with a hint of cedar and vanilla. The mouth is layered with bright flavors of ripe cherry, red currants, and berry jam. Firm tannins focus the palate and provide a lengthy finish of spice and red fruit.

Vineyard: The Truchard Estate Vineyard is located in the Carneros region of the Napa Valley. It is 400 acres of hills and valleys which contain a variety of soils: clay, shale, sandstone, limestone, volcanic ash and rock. The combination of terrain, geology, and marine-moderated temperatures, provides ideal conditions for wine-growing. Cabernet Sauvignon is planted in several different sites - on steep, southwestern facing hillsides. The vines range from 21 - 43 years old, and produce wines that are deep in color, dominated by lush flavors of plum, berry, and spice. Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec are blended in to provide additional softness, structure, and complexity.
