a small amount of wine in and around Napa Valley. It was wholly conceived and is operated by Mark Porembski (formerly with Behrens and Hitchcock, now at Anomaly) and Jennifer Williams (winemaker at Spottswoode). The 2006 is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, and is a blend from two vineyard sources: the Farella Vineyard in Coombsville and the Anomaly Vineyard in St. Helena. Coombsville is known for its relatively cool and long growing season, bringing structure and foundation to the wine. St. Helena is a warmer site that is known for it's elegantly crafted, fruit driven wines. Only the best barrels make it into the final blend, limiting the production to eight barrels for a total of 190 cases. The wine exhibits a diverse group of scents; brown sugar and baklava are intermixed with notes of sweet fruits, notably raspberry and plum. A tinge of bergamot lends life to the nose. The wine is suave as it enters your mouth and displays a lushness that is a hallmark of Napa Valley Cabernet. The 2006 is cut from the same cloth as its slighter older brother (the 2005), but is more mineral in its nature and precise in its focus. Plush tannins culminate in a beautiful and noticeably lasting finish.
