Description: | In 1972, Bruce Markham arrived in Napa Valley with the dream of starting a winery. Intent on crafting world-class wines for years to come, he purchased the "little jewels" that are still the Markham vineyards today. He was a pioneer in what is now the very heart of Napa, buying premium vineyard land before many understood the tremendous potential the valley offered for producing fine wines. He also purchased a winery. Originally established by Jean Laurent, the Markham winery dates back to 1879. As one of the founders of Napa winemaking and viticulture, Markham Vineyards takes great pride in its legacy of exceptional mountains and magnificent vineyards, Markham's winery has the distinction of being the fourth oldest continuously operated winery in Napa County. With this bottling, the jammy character of Yountville Ranch Cabernet takes center stage, rounded out by Rockerbox Vineyard's black currant tones and the beautiful aromatics of Hopper House fruit. Look for aromas of sweet hay, cherry, graphite and baking spices leading to a lush, juicy palate of ripe, round blackberry jam and cherry flavors with chewy tannins on a long finish. Blend: 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 4% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc |
