Nickel Nickel, Napa Valley Varietals, 2008                               130

Oakville:

~John Sullenger Vineyard~

The 2008 Sullenger offers blackberry, black cherry and an earthy character which blends beautifully on the palate. It delivers on its promise of flavor and thickness, emphasizing the ripe, plushness of the vintage. The supple tannins coupled with the oak give a strong, supportive backbone to this wine, and the consistency of the flavor carries through into a long, memorable finish.

~Rock Cairn Vineyard~

The 2008 Rock Cairn Cabernet Sauvignon continues to display the black cherry flavors with briary and black tea notes that have always defined the distinctive character of this vineyard. The toasty French oak adds spice, while the firm, yet supple, tannins of the vintage give depth and richness. This wine can be enjoyed now but will continue to evolve with cellaring into a classic Bordeaux-style wine.

Yountville:

~State Ranch~

The 2008 State Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon offers vibrant aromas of fruit and a rich mouthful of black cherry and berry. A toasty component from the oak complements the abundant fruit and offers a slight cigar quality. There is a firmer core to this wine, but the vintage’s tannins are so supple and fine that they are quite polished.

Stags Leap District:

~Copper Streak Vineyard~

The 2008 Copper Streak has dark fruit flavors of berry and cassis paired with cocoa, black tea and sweet herbs. This exotic combination is carried on luxurious, velvety tannins that almost melt away on the palate. This jammy ripeness and fleshy texture blend seamlessly with the French oak to yield a wine that is most distinctive.

Howell Mountain:

~Vogt Vineyard~

The 2008 Vogt Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic Howell Mountain Cabernet. Distinctive, dark fruit flavors of blackberry and cassis are complemented by notes of floral and spice. The smaller berries from this vintage offer a rich core of both fruit and tannin, while hints of tar and earth add layers of interest. French oak blends beautifully with the ripe fruit and, combined with the abundantly fine tannins from this vintage, carries those flavors into a long, chewy finish.

Rutherford:

C.C Ranch

The 2008 C.C Ranch has many layers of flavors that are quite distinct. Dark cherry fruit with hints of violet mix with black tea and earth to lend an exotic character to the wine. The natural “Rutherford Dust” and toasty French oak complement the fruit. The silky entry get fleshier as the fine tannins from this vintage build on the middle palate and progress into a long, smooth finish.
