“The 2013 growing season was another great one in Napa Valley. Our Cabernets are a blend of wines from eight of the sixteen sub-appellations – a bottling that represents complexity through judicious blending. Deep red and opulent in color with the vibrant scent of dark cherry and blackberry, subtly layered with warm notes of vanilla. The palate is explosive, bright and balanced with cassis at the center, with flourishes of cocoa and sweet tobacco.” Wagner Family, Winery Notes

| Wine Spectator 2013 Vintage Report ~ Napa Valley
The good news: An ideal season—dry conditions and a long, sunny summer.
Promising grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon shined brightest, but everything excelled, from reds to whites.
Analysis: Assessing harvests is a process that extends from the actual picking, to fermentations, to barrel aging and then selection—separating the best lots from lesser ones. But so far, Napa Valley winemakers are unanimous in their enthusiasm for the just-finished 2013 harvest, a drought year and worthy, if not superior, successor to 2012. |
