Varietal Composition: 100% estate fruit - 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot
Rector Creek Vineyard is located north of Yountville along the Silverado Trail. A unique climate featuring a cooling afternoon breeze combined with Rector Creek’s rocky alluvial soils creates excellent growing conditions for the vines. As a result, the Cabernet Sauvignon from this vineyard exhibits graceful violet and rose petal aromatic, fine-grained tannins and abundant dark fruit flavors of blackberry and black raspberry.

Winemaker Notes
The stellar 2021 vintage produced a beautifully refined and red-fruit driven expression of Rector Creek Cabernet with aromas of raspberry, cranberry and rhubarb, as well as hints of olive and rosemary. On the palate, fine, polished tannins frame vibrant layers of Bing cherry, red plum and blueberry as they glide to a long, juicy finish.
