"Great purity is a hallmark of this estate. Their 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Wight Vineyard possesses exceptional stature, a seamless personality, and superbly rich, pristine black currant fruit that cascades over the palate in a beautifully textured, full-bodied style. The finish lasts for 45-50 seconds. The wine’s color is similar to the regular bottling, but the single vineyard offering has several more layers of richness and intensity."

California's most prestigious wine region, celebrated worldwide for opulent, structured Cabernet Sauvignon. Diverse soils and mountain-to-valley-floor sites yield wines of remarkable ripeness, power and longevity.
St. Helena is a warm valley-floor sub-AVA in Napa Valley, California, producing rich, ripe and generously fruited Cabernet Sauvignon of supple tannins, plush texture and classic Napa structure.
The world's most planted premium red grape, yielding deeply colored, tannic and structured wines with cassis, cedar and graphite notes. Firm tannins and acidity make it exceptionally age-worthy, whether as a varietal or the backbone of a Bordeaux blend.
