2017 Arrow and Branch Cabernet Sauvignon Vine Hill Ranch Oakville Napa Valley

Arrow&Branch’s inaugural Vine Hill Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon is an absolute blockbuster of a Cabernet that expresses one of the most in-demand sites in Napa Valley. Sourced from a single block of Cabernet at VHR, it’s ushered to the bottle by winemaker Jennifer WIlliams, who learned under Rosemary Cakebread and Vine Hill Ranch’s own Françoise Peschon. 

Showing a deeply saturated purple hue, the wine is brooding and dark, with regal and polished flavors of chocolate-covered blackberries, fresh florals, and exotic spice. Layers of cardamom and nutmeg reveal themselves in layers, as the full body and sturdy structure keep your palate riveted. Finally, the wine finishes extremely long and refined, hinting at decades of life ahead. 

Arrow&Branch’s Vine Hill Ranch Cabernet is a wine to watch, and one you’ll want in your cellar for the long haul. This 2017, showing all the incredible character of this famed vineyard, is the perfect place to start.
