Notes
-----
Purple with light purple at the edges; nose of dusty, dry
cherries and mineral-infused earth; very seriously
structured and a total pleasure to drink. There's not a huge
finish but this is an incredible tasting+nose wine.

This is the poor man's Insignia (on a good Insignia year).

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.
