2012 White Rock Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

From fruit produced at the top of the vineyard‰۪s slopes, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is pure and focused and possesses a great mineral backbone. It‰۪s aged for 20 months in French oak. This provides wonderful structure without over-the-top intensity, and a very supple mouthfeel. Cranberries, baking spices, cocoa powder and cedar flavors give way to a soft finish with velvety tannins. According to winemaker Christopher Vandendriessche, this vintage will age gracefully for 15‰ÛÒ20 years, and I would definitely agree.
