2018 Barrel EXP
94 Points, American Fine Wine Competition
90+ Points, The Wine Advocate
This opulent wine opens with notes of ripe plum, blackberry, and toasted vanilla bean. It has a rich entry with many layers that unfold as the wine opens. Espresso and cocoa notes take center stage as the tannins provide great structure and depth.
Inspiration
Peju winemaker Sara Fowlers yearly barrel experiment is well known among her fellow winemakers in Napa Valley. Sara works with a variety of different barrel toasting styles and coopers, then shares this learning tool with her peers by offering a comparative tasting to determine the flavors and textures that come om each unique oak treatment. This wine is not only a unique expression of the Cabernet Sauvignon grape, it is also an
ode to the spirit of the Napa Valley.
