| Chateau/Producer: | Cenay | | Wine Name: | Blue Tooth Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon | | Country: | USA | | State: | California | | AOC: | Napa Valley | | Region: | Oak Knoll | | Wine Score: | 92 | | Notes: | Purple with light purple at the edges; nose of tar and minerals; full-bodied with loads of cherries, plum and dark fruits. Explosive flavor and very drinkable now - not so sure about the future because this isn't a very tannic wine. | | Tasting Date: | 2004-08-25 | | Production Notes: | Cenay's Blue Tooth Vineyard is located within Napa Valley's prestigious locality of Oak Knoll. The original vineyard was planted in Cabernet Sauvignon in the 1920s and boders the famous Stag's Leap District.
Oak Knoll has a sandy gravel topsoil over-laying rock, excellent drainage, and once historically was the bed of the Napa River.
The low yielding, concentrated fruit from this old gravel riverbed truly reflects the exceptional quality of Blue Tooth Vineyard and Oak Knoll. | | Price US$: | 23.00 |
