A blockbuster new Napa Valley red blend from one of our favorite small producers. Get the new vintage before the ratings come out! Coho Winery is the shared aspiration of Brooks Painter and Gary Lipp to produce flavorful, balanced wines. The Coho 2011 Headwaters Red Napa Valley (Cabernet Sauvignon with some Merlot and Petite Verdot blended in) shows off a dense purple color plus a sweet perfume of espresso, white chocolate, black cherries, and figs. With tremendous opulence, density, and a long,lush finish, it will provide plenty of pleasure anytime over the next decade.previous vintage 95 Points Wine Spectator: "Firm, rich and vibrant, this is intense, focused, concentrated and persistent, with a taut band of dried currant, mineral, plum and spice, gaining depth and complexity while maintaining a presence of balance and finesse. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2018."

My first Coho. Powerful nose. Deep purple rim. Flavors of blackberry, cinnamon spice, and oak. Strong tannins and firm finish with spice.

Delicious expression of Napa cab. Something different with good earthiness but with great forward fruit.

I am a big Coho Headwaters fan. We double decanted this 2011 quickly to aerate. Then consumed. Full-bodied and well-balanced.
