With intense aromas of cassis, blackberry and plum and a dense concentrated palate this 2009 Napa Valley Cabernet is simply delicious! The grapes for this Cabernet were sourced from several small Napa Valley vineyards, each with its own unique "terroir". Each lot was harvested separately and fermented in small stainless steel open top fermentors. Hand punchdowns every eight hours ensure an efficient, gentle extraction of color and tannin. Aged for two years in small American Oak barrels, this wine is drinking great right now and will, as all ZD Cabernets do, age gracefully for many years to come. We hope you enjoy!
