With Rutherford to the north and Yountville to the south, we are thrilled to add this inaugural Oakville District release to our portfolio, sourced from the very heart of Napa Valley. Merlot shines in the Oakville terroir, offering lush herb-scented aromas of black tea, black cherry and dried plums. On the palate, black cherry leads, joined by flavors of cassis and briary spice, all leading to a round, ripe finish with powerful, grippy tannins.

Oakville is where the character of Merlot and Cabernet collide. It is an interesting challenge to tame the district to allow Merlot to shine equally.
