Cuvaisons Carneros is a 400-acre cool climate estate in the southern part of the Napa Valley, California. Near perfect conditions year after year produce world-class Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Merlot. Controlling all farming aspects within their own vineyard gives Cuvaison an advantage in producing the best quality fruit and thereby minimise over-manipulation at the winery. Winemaker Steven Rogstad, sums it up best: “My style and philosophy are based on expressing the unique character of our estate grapes and doing as little as possible to them. When one has such wonderful fruit to work with, that should be one’s emphasis.”
Tasting Note:
Aromas of strawberry, boysenberry, allspice and vanilla lead gracefully into well-knit flavours of wild strawberries, licorice and orange peel, with a long, elegant finish.
