Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2016

Region
Located deep in the heart of Napa Valley, a stone's throw from Harlan, Paradigm vineyard, BOND, Far Niente, and Opus One. Meander Oakville Cabernet is made of 25+-year-old Cabernet Sauvignon vines and meticulously tended by hand to produce the best possible grapes this region offers.

Clones
The 337 Clone Cabernet Sauvignon 337 vine stock originated at the great chateaux of Bordeaux, France. With its rich, dark fruit flavors and fine tannins, our Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon displays the traits that earned the 337 stock its noble reputation and is a favorite among winegrowers.

Winemaking
Harvested on 10/5 and 10/13 and aged in 100% French oak barrels for 22 months, 90% new oak. Ehren Jordan is the winemaker and needs no introduction, working alongside Helen Turley with Marcasan, Larry Turley, and his own label Failla.

Tasting Notes
This dark, dense, flavorful Cabernet Sauvignon fills the senses with aromas of black cherry, blackberry, and peppercorn. Smooth tannins and balanced acidity allow the flavors of black fruit compote, clove, and spice to come through with a lingering finish.
