2016 MARSTON FAMILY VINEYARD CABERNET SAUVIGNON SPRING MOUNTAIN DISTRICT

The 2016 vintage marks our forty-first growing season in the Napa Valley. We strive to produce a classic, distinctive wine that expresses the complexity of our terraced hillside vineyards along the southern edge of the Spring Mountain District. Each year we select and hand cultivate our favorite blocks of the 40-acre estate vineyard to produce a limited amount of Marston Family Vineyard Estate Cabernet Sauvignon.

Winemaker Tasting Notes: “A beautiful bouquet of black raspberry, pomegranate, rose hips, violets, and hints of cloves. The wild blackberry front leads to a broad mouth of cassis, black raspberry, blueberry and hints of fresh tea leaf. The layers of complexity in the mid-palate are enhanced by young, elegant tannins and a hint of oak to deliver a profound finish of exceptional length.” ~ Marbue Marke, September 2019
