Nestled at the foot of the Palisades in Northern Napa Valley, the 10 acre Lamb Vineyard has been a source of great pride for our family over the past four decades. Named for Juelle's family, the vineyard was planted to Cabernet in 1976 and consistently yields small quantities of fruit that produce wine with a rare combination of rich concentrated flavors, velvet texture and elegance.

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Lamb Vineyard has turned out beautifully. Polished, silky tannins allow the creamy, voluptuous fruit to come through very nicely. Dark red cherry, raspberry, sweet tobacco and cedar add nuance, but it is the wine's textural finesse and overall balance that really stand out. This is a terrific example of the year at its best.
