Pott Incubo Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veeder
| Vintage: | 2019 |

| Description: | This is a real blockbuster Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine has a distinct purity with deftly textured tannins formed from the ancient sandstone soils. The layers here are intense and stay with you for ages. There is a very small percentage of Cabernet Franc that lifts the mid palate and brightens the complex aromatics with blue fruits and cedar cigar box. Incubo began as a tiny, 12 case cuvee that Aaron made from the 1/2 acre vineyard that was already planted on our property when we bought it in 2004. Over time we expanded the vineyards to almost 5 acres, and Incubo grew to around 80 cases. The name derives from a mythical creature supposed to guard a hoarde of treasure. The dragon symbol is in fact the signature of a medieval painter named Lucas Cranach, who often depicted wine and merry-making in his work. We visited a gallery full of his paintings while we were in Germany in 2004 for the World Cup, which is where we got the inspiration. |
