Jericho Canyon Creek Block Cabernet Sauvignon

Winery Story

Jericho Canyon is a rugged area at the northeast end of the Napa Valley in the Mt. St. Helena foothills. It benefits from very hot summer da... (more...)ys moderated by cool nights and chilly mornings. These favorable conditions are caused by a break in the Mayacamas Range which allows the coastal fog to reach our end of the valley. The soils are a volcanic Boomer clay loam and gravelly loam, which provide excellent drainage while reducing the yields.

Tasting Note

The aromas show deep and intense notes of blueberry extract, sweet tobacco leaf, jasmine, and vanilla. The velvety entry seamlessly flows ac... (more...)ross the palate revealing a rich, pure, and delicious wine that pleases from start to finish.
