This exceptional wine boasts a deep ruby hue, hinting at the richness within. On the nose, it offers a bouquet of blackcurrants, cedar, and hints of tobacco, inviting you to savor its complexity. The palate is a harmonious blend of dark fruit flavors, complemented by velvety tannins and a touch of oak, leading to a long, satisfying finish.
Producer Information
Forman Vineyard is a Californian wine estate based in St Helena, particularly known for its red wine made from Cabernet Sauvignon. It was founded in 1983 by noted winemaker Ric Forman. The estate consists of three vineyards, each planted to Cabernet Sauvignon with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. The eight-acre (three-hectare) "Clos" vineyard below the winery has the deepest gravel and sand deposits. Directly above the winery is a steep, 20-acre (eight hectare) block on denser, rockier volcanic soil that was broken up for planting using dynamite. Further up the mountain in the Rutherford AVA, the third vineyard block is planted on pink gravel over volcanic ash subsoils. The variations in soil and site reportedly contribute to the complexity of the Forman Vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon – the flagship wine in the portfolio. The wine range also includes a small amount of Napa Valley Chardonnay, sourced from the Rutherford Star vineyard on the Rutherford Bench. In the past, Forman has also released several one-off wines made from Petit Verdot, Merlot and Sauvignon Vert (better known as Friuliano).
