"Classic Cabernet aromatics of black currant, bing cherry, and ripe raspberry followed by subtle notes of dark chocolate, rose hips, beechwood, vanilla bean, thyme, and Turkish spices.

"To create this Cabernet Sauvignon, Oberon sourced grapes from throughout Napa's finest winegrowing regions, including Oakville, Oak Knoll, Yountville, Suscol Ridge, Chiles Valley, Pope Valley and Capell Valley. By layering fruit from Napa's sparse volcanic soils and the deeper alluvial soils of the valley floor, Oberon accomplished their goal of marrying many different expressions into one outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon that boasts a beautifully seamless mouthfeel and rich, complex texture and flavors." —winemaker

"Powerful but still showing a sense of restraint, the grapes for this cuvée are sourced from two vineyards just over the Monterey County line in Paso Robles. The Homan vineyard resides in the central El Pomar District. Winds from the Templeton Gap ensure a slower, even ripening season for grapes grown on gently-sloped hillsides. Mindy’s is located in the Adelaida District, an area well-known for providing structure and backbone. Homan yields a very red-fruited expression of Cabernet, Mindy’s tends to bring blue and black fruits to a blend, and the two sites complement each other well. Red currants, blue plums, black cherries, granite, and a light touch of refreshing mintiness are supported by firm-yet-smooth tannins." —winemaker

"This wine is sourced from two exceptional vineyards in Northern California: Crimson Ridge Vineyard in Lake County, and a historic family vineyard in Lodi famous for growing exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah. This wine showcases Cabernet Sauvignon’s versatility, highlighting both fantastic winegrowing regions. A bright, fruit forward wine with supple tannins makes this a crowd pleaser. Petite Sirah contributes beautiful color and spice, while splashes of Petit Verdot and Malbec round out the mouthwatering finish." —winemaker

"Sterling Heritage Collection Napa Cabernet Sauvignon is full and rich with a ruby red-garnet color, accompanied by fragrant aromas and bright flavors of red currant, black raspberry, dark cherry, cassis, and red berry compote.

"The 2021 La Storia Cab has a dense ruby-purple color followed by abundant varietal aromas and flavors of blueberries, blackberry, and black licorice with hint of herbs and ripe olives. The French oak aging contributes aromas of vanilla, cocoa dust and slight toast. The mouth feel is medium dense, fresh and juicy with balanced acidy and very soft tannins for a young wine." —winemaker

"This Estate Cabernet is the signature wine of Obsidian Ridge Vineyard and embodies the complexity and wildness of the site. The structure and intensity of upper blocks is complemented by aromatics and acidity of cooler blocks. The extreme climate, altitude, and volcanics of the site result a wine with distinct volcanic character - intense color, aroma and flavor, with a freshness and minerality that typifies the site." —winemaker
