WINE DESCRIPTION

"Purlieu" translates literally to "the edge of the forest" or "an outlying area." Symbolically, it embodies their winemaking philosophy, which involves venturing into uncharted territory and pushing the boundaries of what's expected from a Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. They believe that the secret to navigating this edge lies in preserving a delicate equilibrium: balancing innovation with tradition, confidence with restraint, and depth with refreshment.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

The Le Pich Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon reveals exquisite fruit flavors and elegant fragrances within a smooth, velvety presentation.Its aromatic profile includes hints of black cherry, pencil lead, and mineral notes. The palate boasts a rich, lustrous center filled with ripe boysenberries and blackberries, complemented by a refreshing mineral undertone. This wine exhibits a full, soft mouthfeel with mature, silky tannins. As it unfolds, juicy plum and milk chocolate nuances emerge in the mid-palate, leading to a long finish marked by black raspberries and a hint of mint tea.
