REWA Cabernet Sauvignon 2017, Coombsville, Napa Valley

WHY WE LOVE IT: 95 Points, Vinous,  top of the line Cabernet from the 2017 vintage.. The soil must express itself!

REWA is the flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from only the 3rd release of Rewa Vineyards. With soils some 9,000 years old this estate perched within a collapsed volcano has two distinct vineyards - one much cooler than the other and perfect for mountain Cab. It's aromas are so reflective of place - fruit, earth, spice and herbs- they are tightly woven and almost difficult to separate. Perfection!

WINEMAKER: The legendary Celia Welch 

PERSONALITY: Celia Welch awards:

  • 2008, Food & Wine’s Winemaker of the Year. 
  • 2006, Forbes.com “Top Ten Tastemaker”
  • Inducted Winemaker’s Hall of Fame

 AVA DESIGNATED: Coombsville, Napa Valley

WHAT WE TASTED: Deep garnet color with aromas of blackberry, raspberry, cocoa, with cedar, anise and delightful mint. Ripe, dense and concentrated. Bit more fruit forward than the 2016 vintage. Lots of juicy fruit and fine grained tannins on an excellent long finish.

WHAT WE PAIRED:

  • Montana Bison ribeye, fried smoked gouda gnocci with veal demiglaze
  • Wild mushroom omelette, bacon wrapped figs, green salad with shaved truffle cheese
  • Chicken Coconut Curry

TECHNICAL:

  • Each block fermented separately, pressed, transferred to French oak barrels and kept as a discreet lot for ten months. 
  • The wine was then blended and returned to
    barrels for an additional year of aging in French oak.
  • Organically farmed vineyard, fish friendly farming certified
