About Clos de Napa 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, Rutherford, Napa Valley
What a fantastic find! For this Cab, grapes were sourced from an outstanding family owned vineyard in the Rutherford AVA of Napa Valley. With mature vines almost 30 years of age, the vineyard is on a terraced hillside with well-drained soils of limestone and sandstone that let the roots go deep. Soaking up the late afternoon sun these grapes take on richness, intensity and nuance.
Because these grapes were so full of expression the winemaking team (led by none other than Trevor Sheehan), decided to age in 60% new French oak barrels for 10 months. This approach adds another layer to the finished wine while keeping the oak expression well integrated. The result is a wine that hits on all cylinders. The final blend is 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot.
Wine & Spirits Magazine scored this 92 points saying “Trevor Sheehan at Precision Wine Company makes this cabernet, packed with black-currant richness yet on the underside of ripeness. The perfumed tannins have a bosky feel, more breathable than taste-able, their muscular hold on the fruit not diminishing its cushioned feel. This is not a wine to age, but to drink now with chopped sirloin off the grill.”
Cabs from Rutherford routinely fetch $100 or more, and a wine of this quality you'd expect to be on the "more" side.
