2008 Vineyard 29 Cru Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
SKU #500423
The 2008 Cru exhibits a deep purple-tinged hue that is darker than previous vintages. Aromas of cassis and ripe wild berry suggest an intense level of freshness. The nose evolves to exhibit roasted coffee bean and cocoa and it finishes with a delicate hint of baking spices and orange rind. The palate is rich with huckleberry and other black fruits while white pepper dust and cocoa linger on the finish. This wine exhibits a polished focus that can be attributed to its balanced acidity and beautifully refined tannins. The 2008 Cru has an intense richness that will drink beautifully now until 2018.

The cabernet sauvignon fruit for the wineries Cru is grown at some of the most amazing vineyard sites around the Napa Valley. These vineyards are carefully identified by our winemaking team for the special characteristics that the fruit will contribute to Cru, culminating in a classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. We work with our Cru growers throughout the year, partnering in all aspects of wine growing from pruning to shoot positioning, irrigation, thinning and harvesting. Once harvested and at Vineyard 29, this stellar fruit follows the same vinification process as all the wines in Vineyards 29’s portfolio from meticulous hand sorting to gentle processing in our state of the art, gravity flow winery.
