Our 2015 Benchland Select Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of grapes from two superior
vineyards in the gently sloping western benchlands of Napa Valley’s famed Oakville and
Rutherford appellations. Boasting ideal eastern exposures, these vineyards benefit from cool
afternoon shade provided by the Mayacamas Mountains, allowing the grapes to mature at a slow,
even pace. The benchlands’ gravelly loam soils afford excellent drainage, enabling growers to
precisely calibrate the amount of water required to nourish the vines. Coupled with mild summer
afternoons, these conditions result in uniform grape ripening and cabernet sauvignons displaying
opulent fruit, an elegant mouthfeel and fine structure.
