V. Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Single Vineyard Sonoma County 2016  - First Bottle

Reviews

94 Vinous -
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is a potent, rich wine. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, chocolate, blackberry and sweet French oak build as this voluptuous, curvy Cabernet Sauvignon shows off its explosive, alluring personality. The 2016 is a big, modern wine, but it is also quite polished and full of potential.
94 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon (100% Cabernet) is very deep purple-black colored and sings of black raspberries, kirsch and blackberry pie with touches of fresh black currants, cedar chest, tilled soil and bay leaves. Medium to full-bodied, it has a solid frame of ripe, grainy tannins and just enough freshness to lift the dense, muscular fruit to a long finish. 110 cases produced.

You know rockstar Jean Hoefliger from his DEBATE, MICHEL ROLLAND "MR" and ALPHA OMEGA wines (among many others), and the guy consistently makes HUGE-scoring, fan-favorite Napa reds in the plush, rich, and silky style. V. Vineyards is a little under-the-radar (and frankly, we would like to keep it that way). Perched up on Spring Mountain, deep up St. Helena Road, and neighbors to luminaries like Pride Mountain, Cornell and Vineyard 7&8, lies this magnificent Mayacamas mountain estate.

It’s a dreamy spot purchased by Gina and Steve Viets and planted in 2007 to primarily cabernet sauvignon. At 1,800 feet in elevation and just one mile from the Napa County line, these rugged mountain vines produce wines of incredible concentration and complexity. This wine is a true gem that checks all the boxes for world-class cab, and we are confident it will age effortlessly for decades. Check out the reviews below to get an idea of how incredible this wine is for the price! But fair warning, deals like this don't come around too often...just over 100 cases were even made!

Why wait is right! At our price? This is a GEM, a terrific find, and the PRICE! We’re drinking this all day long! ONLY 245 BOTTLES!

PAIRING IDEAS: So soft and rich, a simple burger or steak is perfect. Make it savory with this stuff (a new find we've been experimenting with), and mix it in your burger meat or marinade for your steak. It adds a cool new level of savoriness that is SO good!! Good in salad dressing too.

MUSIC SUGGESTIONS: If you’re up for hilarity, politics and lots of bad words, stream some Lewis Black. We saw his show in Napa Saturday, and he killed it!

About the Producer

"Every once in awhile an unparalleled vineyard site is quite literally stumbled upon. Gina and Steve Viets purchased their Sonoma home designed to give their children more room to roam and to escape foggy San Francisco. Little did they know, but their passion for seeking the perfect bottle of Cabernet, along with their interest in farming, was about to converge. While exploring the property and it's history the family discovered that the land was once a vineyard in the late 1800s, they began seeing their hillside in a whole new light, inspiring them to establish V. Vineyards - dedicated to single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon wines. V. Vineyards unique mountain site provides well-drained volcanic soils which help to produce small berries with intensely concentrated flavors. The elevation also affords a cool, long growing season producing elegant aromas and tannins encompassed by a strong acidic backbone. The resulting wines are a true expression of the remarkable terroir which is V. Vineyards."
