The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon is the third release in our line-up of distinguished Cabernets. The grapes for the 2005 vintage came from the Oakville and Yountville districts. Our goal for this Cabernet Sauvignon was to create a wine with complex flavors and good structure. To achieve this in the 2005 vintage, we blended in a small amount of Malbec. This component contributes fruit and elegant tannins.

Serve with prime rib, fillet of lamb, roast duck or artisan cheeses.
