LAUREATE
The luscious grapes for our LAUREATE were planted as a field blend and grown at Simboli Vineyard in Napa Valley by a Nobel prize winner. Two words: “Cherry pie”. Bright red fruit, vanilla, spice and toasty oak aromas and flavors. There is a wonderful balance of acid and silky tannins in our LAUREATE wine. It is a distinguished expression of a classic Cabernet Sauvignon made in a Bordeaux style with a subtle California twist.
Cabernet Sauvignon 85%, Zinfandel 7%, Merlot 4%, Petit Verdot 4
