    Winemaker Notes

    All of the dials are taken up a notch with the 2013 vintage, making for a bolder red wine experience. Slightly “retro” in style, our ’13 has the tannic backbone and acid that has slipped away in an era of Cabernet masquerading as Zinfandel. Classic Oakville notes of black currant, cedar, ripe cherry and clove spice aromas are mirrored with flavors of equal intensity on the palate. This is the first vintage in which the fruit hails from the prestigious, 100-point Fortuna Vineyard in Oakville.

    After years of honing our skills in the culinary arts and winemaking trade, and traveling the world to broaden our vision and training (making many friends along the way), we finally could not resist the opportunity to create a great wine from the Napa Valley. We envisioned a wine that would be fresh, fragrant, elegant and flavorful -- yet not be too expensive.

    A wine that we hope will be enjoyed amongst friends, on a warm summer's evening, telling stories and sharing dreams.

    When we appear in our favorite vineyards, boots and wide-brimmed hats on, ready for a good day's work, our farming friends know that this is a "DeSante Family Adventure." We all share in the fun. Walking the vineyard rows daily... tasting, hoping, watching the weather, seeing the neighbors pick their grapes... waiting for the day of harvest.

    A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbecand Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.

    Home to some of the most sought-after Cabernet Sauvignon in America, Napa Valley’s Oakville district stretches across the center of Napa's valley floor and foothills between the Vaca and Mayacamas Mountains. This AVA is home to the legendary To Kalon Vineyard and Martha's Vineyard, as well as many powerhouse wineries including Screaming Eagle, Silver Oak, Robert Mondavi, Opus One, Far Niente and Groth.

    The climate is generally warm and agreeable, resulting in year after year of favorable vintages. Summer days see a gentle tug of war between warmer inland air and the cool air coming in from the San Pablo Bay, creating an ideal environment to grow red varieties. Oakville's diverse soils, namely ancient sea bedrock, clay and gravel, are well-drained, and perfect for high-caliber viticulture.

    Cabernet here is often bottled varietally but is also popular in Bordeaux Blends. Oakville wines are known for their silky, sensual textures, structured tannins, dark and brooding fruit and lovely aromatics. These age-worthy and prestigious wines are favored by collectors throughout the world.
