| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nSourced principally from the five family estates in Yountville, the 2018 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon displays cranberry and briary aromas with hints of brown butter and clove. This medium-to-full-bodied wine showcases a rich mix of cranberry and black currant flavors set against a beautifully integrated backdrop of lightly toasted oak, all leading to a smooth lingering finish of berries and butter.\r\nBlend: 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 3% Merlot, 1.5% Cabernet Franc, 1.5% Malbec \r\nWine Enthusiast 90 Points\r\nAbout Charles Krug Winery\r\nIn 1861, Charles Krug, the visionary father of Napa Valley winemaking, established the winery that started it all. The Mondavi Family purchased this already iconic estate in 1943, and for over 75 years and four generations they have been passionately perfecting an enduring legacy for those generations still to come. While known in his time as a pioneering visionary, it is doubtful that even Charles Krug could have foreseen how the humble winery he founded in 1861 would forever alter the American wine landscape. The ambitious Prussian immigrant transformed 540 acres of prime Napa Valley land that came to him through marriage to Carolina Bale, into the valley\u2019s very first winery. Years later, another immigrant family\u00a0\u0336\u0336\u00a0the Mondavis from Italy\u00a0\u0336\u0336\u00a0would begin their own chapter at Charles Krug, rising to become the \u201cfirst family\u201d of American wine.\r\n |
