Crafted by one of the #1 talents in Napa today, winemaker Benoit Touguette was Andy Erickson's right hand man, managing day-to-day wine production at Screaming Eagle during the 2005/2006 vintages (both 98 points) and the legendary 2007 vintage (100 points). Benoit also happens to be the French protege of world-famous winemaker Michel Rolland and assisted him along with Andy Erickson in launching Ovid. Today, Benoit is leveraging his substantial talent and connections in Napa to craft just five barrels of a glorious micro-production Cabernet under his new personal label he calls Fait Main which means "hand-crafted" in French. The fruit for this Cabernet Sauvignon comes from prime vineyards in Saint Helena, Calistoga, and Rutherford.
A blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Zinfandel, 5% Petite Sirah, and 3% Charbono, this wine jumps out of the glass with notes of cassis, berries, floral tones, and a serious dash of spice. Ripe, polished tannins offer up a rich and full-bodied palate experience, while the fresh acidity sustains fantastic length on the finish. don't wait - open it up...now!
