Vineyard 29 Cru Series The Essentials Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
A great buy in small-production Napa Cabernet from Vineyard 29. While the Estate wines express the terroir of their specific locations, Vineyard 29's Cru Cabernet showcases the broader character of wine-growing regions, and is an interpretation of classic wines from the Napa Valley. "It's all about making the wine in the vineyard" is how Keith Emerson, Director of Winemaking at Vineyard 29, describes the philosophy behind the Cru wines. Everything from site selection, crop yield, and picking decisions are made with the final blend in mind. This deliberate, detail-oriented winemaking results in elegantly composed wines that depict the best characteristics of their region. Cru Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of fruit from exceptional valley floor and hillside vineyards throughout Napa Valley. It is hand-crafted in the gravity flow winery and is an introduction to Vineyard 29's style - elegance and quality.

What a tremendous showing! I continue to find pleasure in 2015 Napa Valley Cabs!!! This has waves of berry cobbler flavors along with a green olive salinity. Trust me it works. Judicious oak treatment frames all this delicious ripe fruit, and the finish sails on for over a minute. The obvious choice would be to pair this with a juicy ribeye, but honestly this wine is so riveting ANY food you have with it will be sitting in coach. I still am a Francophile when it comes to wines, but when Cali brings it....Jeeezzz!

My first turns two and we decided to have a little pre-party this weekend. This was the second wine and is a lush, open wine. Not much complexity here, especially at this age, but always love this when I need to please groups.
