ABOUT THE PRODUCER:
Raymond Vineyards, founded in 1970, is one of the Napa Valley’s pioneering estates. The Raymond family arrived in Napa in 1933 and have become deeply connected to the valley’s winemaking origins. In 1970, they established a 36-hectare estate in Rutherford, which now comprises 121 hectares in Rutherford, St. Helena and Jameson Canyon. Raymond’s Rutherford and St. Helena estate vineyards are certified organic and biodynamic; and 100% of the winery’s power comes from renewable solar energy. They are certified by Napa Green and the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance. Five generations of the Raymond family have created a Napa icon, with an enduring reputation for elegant wines with a beautiful balance of finesse, opulence and complexity.
ABOUT THE VINEYARD:
The R Collection Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from the finest vineyards throughout California, with each area adding a unique layer into the overall taste profile. The vines are planted in gravel soils overlaid with alluvial layers, which provides the vines with good drainage. Ecological cultivation and sustainable farming are of paramount importance and the vines are certified by Napa Green, Fish Friendly Farming and the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance.
THE WINEMAKING PROCESS:
Minimal intervention winemaking techniques were used to allow the true Californian terroir to shine through. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks with native and selected yeasts. Minimal pump-overs took place to avoid over-extraction of tannins. Minimal use of French oak influenced the maturation which lasted for six months, adding subtle complexity.
OUR TASTING NOTES:
This Cabernet Sauvignon opens with aromas of dark red fruits and blackberry pie accented with a touch of clove. Opulent on the palate with rich flavours of blackcurrant and plum which intermingle seamlessly with the soft, round tannins to create a long, delicious finish.
GRAPE VARIETY:
Cabernet Sauvignon 86%, Petite Sirah 5%, Other Varieties 4%, Petit Verdot 4%, Merlot 1%.
