Cabernet Sauvignon   Tietjen Vineyard on Niebaum Lane – Rutherford, Napa Valley

This 7 ½ acre vineyard on Niebaum Lane is a consistent favorite.  The Cabernet Sauvignon from this vineyard shows a great core of berry fruit with tremendous brightness.  It also adds an elegance and suppleness to the texture of the wine.

 

Cabernet Sauvignon   Ehlers Lane Vineyard – St. Helena, Napa Valley

This small vineyard on Ehlers Lane was planted in the early 1970’s and produces cabernet sauvignon of great power and intensity that gives black-fruit character and rich texture to the wine.               

 

100% Cabernet Sauvignon

                                                                                                                                               

 
Harvest Dates / Brix  September 30 – October 4

                                                                                                                                               

 

Vintage: Vintage 2000 will be a classic year for many red wines, thanks to an ideal Napa Valley growing season - hot days and cool nights were only interrupted twice: once in June with a heat spike and once in September with a little rain. The slightly cooler days in September gave the grapes extra time to hang and reach a greater physiological ripeness.  The wines immediately exhibited fully developed flavors and excellent color.

Vineyard Notes
Our Flagship wine is our CORLEY RESERVE Cabernet Sauvignon. Utilizing the strengths of each of our cabernet sauvignon vineyards in Rutherford, Yountville and St Helena give us the luxury of three of Napa Valley's premier Cabernet Sauvignon growing areas. to produce full, rich and complex Cabernet Sauvignon wine. Typically luscious, powerful and richly textured our CORLEY RESERVE is full-bodied and while ready to drink is also a wine to lay down for the years to come. Aromatics of juicy red fruits, toasty sweet oak and hints of vanilla. Flavors follow similarly, most notably rich berry pie as the wine opens up. This wine once again shows nice consistency and balance throughout the entire experience – from the aromatics through to the finish. The mouthfeel is rich in texture and the finish sails on framed by firm but velvety tannins, one of the hallmarks of our wine.
