In the tradition of Cabernet Sauvignon, Matthiasson includes a small amount of Merlot, cabernet franc and Petit verdot, and is blended from six vineyards throughout the Napa Valley. It is a Napa Cab of the old school, a blended wine, age-worthy, complex, and begging for a steak off of the grill. Herbaceaous aromatics mixed in with dark fruit, this is a fresher style of Cabernet with balanced acidity and tannin.
