Terra Valentine



Spring Mountain District, Napa Valley

2006 Cabernet Sauvignon

Deep intense red color / lush aromas of rich very ripe grapes - chocolatey.  A big big wine on the palate; lots and lots of fruit on front with a lot of tannins forming a backbone.  $38.00

2006 Cabernet Sauvignon
Wurtele Vineyard

Dark, dark richness of color with a deep purple flash at the edges of the glass.  Aromas of dried pears and apricots dipped in chocolate lead to a well balanced, but very rich, fruity wine.  The tannins are soft and well integrated into a concentrated wine.  $60.00

Two wines in the current style:  very contemporary style with lots of fruit forward flavors, lots of tannin and plenty of alcohol.  Both will improve for about 5 years.
