Tasting Note

This opaque dark ruby wine has aromas of black currant and blueberry, with nuances of blackberry jam on toast, dark chocolate truffle and forest floor. The oak adds the right amount of complexity with aromatic cedar, cinnamon and clove. The wine has great depth of black fruit flavour, with a strong expression of sweet black cherry and dark plum. There is a complexity in the nose that hints of tobacco, Mexican spice and a briary thicket. This full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon has expressive tannin, and, with good acidity, shows great aging potential. Aging potential in a proper cellar is 30 years or more.

Product Notes

This wine is crafted using grapes from the historic Sycamore Vineyard, known for its unique terroir and optimal growing conditions. The result is a beautifully structured wine with complex layers of dark fruits, blackberry, and cassis, complemented by hints of spice, vanilla, and oak. Full-bodied and velvety on the palate, this Cabernet Sauvignon boasts a long, elegant finish that lingers with notes of dark chocolate and tobacco. Perfect for special occasions or pairing with hearty dishes, this wine is a true expression of excellence from Freemark Abbey.

About the Winery

Freemark Abbey

Freemark Abbey Winery is one of Napa Valley’s historic estates, with roots dating back to 1886. Located just north of St. Helena, the winery was originally founded by Josephine Tychson, one of the first female winemakers in Napa Valley, before evolving through several ownerships in the early 20th century. The modern identity of Freemark Abbey was established in 1939, when three partners—Charles Freeman, Markquand Foster, and Abbey Ahern—combined their names to create the winery’s distinctive title.
