Position

Napa Valley is California's most famous wine region and synonymous worldwide with top-quality New World wines. The Mediterranean climate, with its hot days and cool nights, influenced by San Pablo Bay, and the diverse soils, ranging from volcanic soils in the north to alluvial sedimentary soils in the south, create ideal conditions for optimal grape ripening. The Bordeaux grape variety Cabernet Sauvignon, in particular, thrives in Napa Valley.

 

Grape varieties

This wine combines five classic Bordeaux grape varieties: The main variety, Cabernet Sauvignon, with its dense structure, dark fruit, and robust tannins, forms the backbone of the wine. Merlot contributes softness and ripe fruit, while Cabernet Franc brings spicy elegance and freshness. Petit Verdot enhances color, tannins, and dark berry notes, and Malbec adds juicy fruit and a velvety texture. This combination creates a harmonious, multi-layered wine with depth and aging potential.
