About This Wine

Oberon

Cabernet Sauvignon

2018 was a near-perfect growing season, which resulted in layers and depth of varietally true flavor from each vineyard lot. This year's blend was sourced up and down the valley floor and Napa County foothills of Rutherford, St. Helena, Oak Knoll, Yountville, and more, creating a true Napa Valley native with rich, complex texture and a seamless mouthfeel.

NOTE: This is NOT a Firstleaf Exclusive Wine.

Wine Region

Napa County

It may be small, but when it comes to American wine regions, they do not come much bigger than Napa County. Home to the famous Napa Valley, which comprises most of its area, the Napa name has gained global recognition for its exceptional wines—especially its Bordeaux varieties. Most Napa County wineries choose to be more location-specific when labeling their wine, listing the name of sub-regions like Yountville, Los Carneros or Rutherford to capitalize on the name recognition. However, with such an abundance of high-quality grapes grown across the region, plenty of négociant winemakers blend fruit from different sub-regions. This gives Napa County wines excellent regional balance, taking advantage of different terroirs and mesoclimates.

A touch of Petit Verdot and Zinfandel brings Oberon's deep colors, supple, silky tannins and notes of vibrant black cherry to this classically-styled Cabernet Sauvignon. Thirteen months on both new and old French oak dovetail these flavor profiles and tannins while imparting a hint of mocha on the lingering finish.
