About This Wine:

Our inaugural release Cabernet from the 2001 vintage quickly landed Cobblestone in the company of Napa Valley’s finest wines, picking up 92 points from Wine Spectator. This follow-up vintage displays exceptional structure and complexity, indicating that as our young vineyard continues to mature, the wine we produce from it will follow suit.

The 2002 vintage is comprised of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes harvested entirely from our 25-acre mountain vineyard nestled high in the Atlas Peak appellation of Napa Valley.
