Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate has a very classy, forthright nose of warm blackcurrants, preserved plums and wild blueberries with underlying notions of cigar box, graphite, crushed rocks, bouquet garni and espresso. Full-bodied, firm and built like a brick house, it has a solid line of ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness supporting the tightly knit, muscular black fruit, finishing long and earthy. This should age incredibly!

• Jeb Dunnuck: Showing similarly to its last showing, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon offers more blue fruits, iron, tobacco, and graphite, and it’s a much more focused, straight, elegant wine compared to the more exuberant 2015. I love its purity of fruit, and it has terrific tannins, a notable sense of freshness, and the class to evolve for other 20-25 years. Best After 2021

Southwest of St. Helena, in the Napa Valley is our 20 acre estate and winery. We are tucked in the foothills of the Mayacamas mountain range and surrounded by old-growth forests. The property was a part of the historic Bourn estate dating back to 1872 at the beginnings of winemaking in the Napa Valley.

After completing his BS Viticulture and Enology from UC Davis he worked in France for Petrus, Chateau Haut-Brion & La Mission Haut-Brion in Bordeaux and DRC or Domaine de la Romanée Conti in Burgundy. After graduating from his second Master from the University of Bordeaux, he returned back to the Napa Valley, and worked with Andy Erickson, at prestigious wineries such as Screaming Eagle Ovid, Arietta, Dancing Hares, Dalla Valle, and now full-time winemaker for Marciano Estate.
