LIBRARY AND SPECIAL RESERVE SERIES WINE
Over 50% of the Cabernet grapes for this vintage came from our Estate in the Santa Cruz Mountains with the remainder from the Pedregal vineyard in Paicines. Though the two vineyards are very similar in climate and grape growing philosophy, the subtle differences are what really make the two a perfect match. Combined with a small amount of Merlot from the Regan vineyard in the Santa Cruz Mountains, this wine is a balance of fruit, herbs, mild tannins, coffee and a hint of smoke.
This wine is a hand blended selection of the finest lots of Cabernet our cellar has to offer. After two years in the barrel, the individual lots were blended and returned to the barrel for one more year of rest. It is the ultimate showcase of the fruit from our Los Gatos Estate. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is rich and multidimensional but not overpowering to the senses. The cherry, vanilla and herb flavors are perfectly balanced with smooth tannin and acid. Sold in a beautiful wooden 3 bottle gift box, the 2006 Reserve Series Cabernet is a wine that will impress even the most demanding palate. Only 100 gift boxes produced.
