about this wine:

David Arthur's Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from three distinctive vineyard blocks. The aromas are incredibly sensuous with dark mulled spices, floral notes, earthy aromas and a dense cassis-blackberry fruit core.  The palate is bold and full-bodied, yet focused with layer after
layer of expansion on a long finish.

There are only a few hundred cases of this 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon. Extremely ripe notes of prunes, blackberries, and currants intertwine with coffee and chocolate in this surprisingly dense, low acid, concentrated 1998. A dense ruby/plum/purple color is accompanied by a full-bodied, unctuously-textured, fully mature wine. I am not sure it possesses the structure necessary for extended aging, but it will provide immense pleasure over the next 10-15 years.

Dark, rich, intense and focused, with ripe, spicy currant, plum and black cherry fruit, plus shadings of herb and cedar. Turns a touch prickly, with a slight vinegary edge...

About Winery

Looking down over Napa Valley from the apex of David Arthur Vineyards, planted at elevations between 1,100 and 1,200 feet above sea level, the vine rows circle and race down the hills merging into a sea of green on the valley floor. Exhilarating, not always predictable, but ending well, it is a metaphor of David Arthur Vineyards.

The people of David Arthur Vineyards brim with energy and heart, which they pour into the hilltop land that is their legacy. The venture was named after David's two grandfathers David and Arthur. David's father and mother, Don and Anne, planted the first seed of this small winery by gifting David and his two brothers each 350 acres. "I recognize that I am privileged to have been given the property," David said, "but I have worked hard to make it what it is today."
