The winemaking process involves hand-harvesting, small-batch fermentation, and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is full-bodied with rich flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and spice, balanced by firm tannins and a long finish. It is a classic example of a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.
