Côtière 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon “Lewelling” Napa Valley 95 Points

Vinous 95 Points: “The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Lewelling Ranch Vineyard is precise, with strikingly beautiful aromatics that make a strong first impression. Beautifully sculpted, and gorgeously nuanced, this Cabernet captures the very best qualities of this terrific Napa Valley vintage. Graphite, black currants, scorched earth, and polished tannins round things out in style.” Vinous  95 points.  

Winery Notes: “This historic vineyard in Napa Valley is located near the western foothills of St.Helena. First planted in 1864 and is still owned by the Wight family, making it one of the oldest continuously owned and farmed vineyards in the Napa Valley. On this magic site, the gravelly loam soils and microclimate combine to produce exceptional Cabernets. Distinctly rich and long-lived wines that have tremendous character and are highly sought after.”
