Standing tall on Howell Mountain in Napa Valley, Cade Winery Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a luxurious and full-bodied wine that epitomizes the essence of California's finest wines. This rich and complex wine is made using the highest quality grapes from the Howell Mountain vineyards, and it is aged for 22 months in 100% French oak barrels. The result is a stunning ruby red wine with a bouquet of black currants, ripe dark berries, and hints of vanilla and tobacco. The palate is rich and full with firm tannins and a long finish. This wine is perfect to enjoy with a bold and flavorful meal or to savor on its own.

Tasting Notes

On the nose are aromas of cola, blueberry, red cherry, coco nibs, baking spices, and dried cranberries, followed by flavors of boysenberry, black cherry, elderberry, dark chocolate, clove, and licorice. It finishes with bramble, amaretto, and dried blue/black fruits. This wine has a classic Howell Mountain structure and tannin — big and bold but balanced in approach. The cooler vintage produced wines with higher perceived acidity and exceptional red fruit flavors and aromas.

About the Winery

Cade Winery began as a shared vision and dream of three individuals. It included John Conover, Gordon Getty, and Gavin Newsom. The three wished to establish and manage an estate vineyard that could complement and express the terroir of PlumpJack Estate Winery’s valley floor. Their goals and aspirations came true and into reality through the establishment of Cade Winery in 1005. John, Gordon, and Gavin set up the wine estate at an elevated height, covering 54 acres of land on Howell Mountain’s slopes.

Since its establishment, John, Gordon, and Gavin have put in their tireless and selfless efforts to grow Cade Winery and increase its fame and name globally. It began by incorporating and utilising state-of-the-art technologies in most processes and workings within the winery. They did so with the aim and ambition to pay tribute and respect to the land through various ecological and aesthetic steps and methods. The three’s commitment increased over time, leading to the implementation of different and distinct policies and practices with the winery that put the environment and the surroundings as the top priority. Thus, Cade Winery follows a sustainable and organic approach to viticulture, vinification, and cultivation across all its vineyards and wine cellars.

The winery owned and managed by Cade Winery has a contemporary and beneficial design. It reduces the impact and detrimental environmental effects and allows it to blend with nature. Every detail put into the winery and the vineyards help bring out the unique and distinct characteristics and attributes of the region’s terroirs through the produced wines. Thus, the drinks and products of Cade Winery possess an elegance and personality that cannot get replicated anywhere else. In addition, the wines’ prominent and distinctive taste, aroma, colour, and mouthfeel appeal to numerous people, leaving them demanding more in almost every instance.
