One of my favorites from Premiere Napa Valley 2020. #pnv20 #pnv2020 #napa Only 5 cases. Staglin clonal selection of Cabernet Sauvignon
A second generation Martha’s Clone, originally planted on the estate in the 1960s by André Tchelistcheff
Single barrel selected by winemaker Fredrik Johansson as a roto fermentation and aging in the same barrel
Your wine showcases opulence, elegance, nuance and complexity

This is the first time we are creating single barrel selection of the Staglin Clone Cabernet Sauvignon for Premiere Napa Valley. Harvested on Oct. 26, 2018 from our Rutherford Bench estate vines that were originally planted in the 1960s by the famed Andre Tchelistcheff and repropagated in 1990 under the talented hand of David Abreu. Winemaker Fredrik Johnasson selected these grapes for an in-barrel roto fermentation where the wine currently ages awaiting its future owner. One of the greatest vintages we have seen on our estate, this wine showcases the opulence, elegance, nuance and complexity our Cabernet Sauvignon has become known for.

Saint-Èmilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 1999

A modern style of Bordeaux but a monster from the right bank. I think they are using Roto fermentors.... Amazing juice and great depth... This wine has it all... Coffee mocha with earth tones in the back this wine was fabulous. — 9 years ago

Roto Maule Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

From the August wine share. Smoke-y, roast-y, malt-y. Not much fruit, maybe blueberries or blackberries. Hits right in this Tropical Storm Ida weather ☔️ I like it 🤔 — 3 years ago

So young but oh man. Apparently roto fermenters? 10% new oaks. 100% Syrah. Really good. Wait to drink. Wait! — 9 years ago

Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Nice Maule Valley Chilean Cab Sauv with a melange of solid flavors.
Very drinkable! Fruit, tannins, acid, are all in check. Enjoyed immensely, wish I could find more like this!
