Freemark Abbey Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Freemark Abbey has held exclusive sourcing rights to Rutherfords Bosche Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon red wine for over 45 years starting with a 1970 handshake deal between winery partner Chuck Carpy and John Bosche. Bosche Vineyard cuttings were used to plant Heitz’s Martha’s Vineyard which produced Napa’s first single-vineyard Cabernet; Freemark Abbey’s Bosche Vineyard Cabernet was the second. Staying true to its historic roots this dark ruby red wine is flavor-intense enjoyable now or can be properly cellared for 20-30 years of enjoyment. This dark red wine has complex aromas of blackberry cassis oak spice and cocoa. Balanced acidity and integrated tannins provide a long complex and minerally finish. Pair with filet mignon with shallot thyme sauce tri-tip sandwich.
