Our Wines & Spirits

Robert Parker: The inky blue/purple-colored 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Au Sommet is filled with blackberry, blueberry, graphite and floral notes. Composed of 97.3% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2.7% Petit Verdot, it reveals a pleasant underlying earthy/terroir component, but the fruit dominates and this medium to full-bodied 2010 is rich, textured, and impressively endowed. Possessing the best of both worlds - the finesse, terroir and earthiness of France, and the sumptuous fruit, texture and lusciousness of Napa - it will benefit from another 3-4 years of cellaring, and keep for at least two decades. The Au Sommet Cabernet Sauvignon comes from a high elevation estate vineyard on Atlas Peak, and is looked after by well-known winemaker Heidi Barrett.
