Overview:

• 2018 Vintage: The 2018 vintage in Napa Valley was marked by a timely late winter/early spring precipitation, followed by moderate temperatures. This ideal climate led to an even crop load and allowed the fruit to ripen gradually, resulting in a balanced and flavorful wine.
• Harvest Date: The grapes were harvested on October 18th, a week later than usual, ensuring optimal ripeness and concentration of flavors.

Tasting Notes:

• Aromas: Black cherry, cassis, blackberry, and plum are complemented by hints of powdered dark chocolate, cedar, and sweet spice from French oak barrels.
• Palate: The wine is concentrated and pure, with focused, refined tannins that contribute to its elegance and structure.

Pairing Suggestions:

• Grilled Ribeye Steak: Enhance your steak with rosemary and shallots, allowing the rich flavors of the wine to shine through.
• Porcini Pork Tenderloin: The depth and complexity of this dish pair beautifully with the boldness of the Carol’s Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.
