About This Wine

Newton

Unfiltered Cabernet Sauvignon

This Unfiltered Cabernet Sauvignon features grapes from some of the best sites within the Napa Valley. Harvested from our Spring Mountain, Mt. Veeder, and Yountville appellation vineyards, the blended fruit represents the essence of premium Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Once harvested and hand-sorted, the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were sent through an optical sorter, which inspected each individual berry to ensure perfect, uniform ripeness. To develop additional complexity, the wine rested on its skins for as many as 20 days before being pressed and aged for 14 months in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is rich but with beautiful complexity that showcases the region.

Wine Region

Napa Valley

Napa gained international acclaim following the Judgement of Paris in 1976, when its wines defeated its French counterparts in a blind tasting. Napa's signature wines are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and various Bordeaux blends, but many other varieties, such as Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc also thrive here. With 16 sub-AVAs and a Mediterranean climate with rich geology, Napa is a winemaker's dream. The winegrowing region runs between the Mayacamas Mountains and Vaca Mountains for 30 miles, from Calistoga to Los Carneros. Napa has a wide array of soil types for such a small region, from volcanic foothills to alluvial valley floors, which help to produce varied and complex wines.

Displaying a deep ruby color, the 2016 Unfiltered Cabernet Sauvignon is fresh, lush, and silky on the palate. Aromas of bramble berries, red cherry, and baking spices intermingle beautifully. While ready to drink now, this wine could easily age for another decade.
