"The 2016 Red Blend Tesorina is the flagship of the estate and is Italian for
"little treasure". Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon brought up in 90% new French oak, its deep purple color is followed by thrilling notes of crème de cassis, graphite, crushed rocks, and damp earth/leafy herbs. It has subtle background oak, medium to full body, present yet polished tannins, and the hallmark purity and freshness of the 2016 vintage. This is a thrilling bottle of wine to cellar for 3-4 years and enjoy over the following two decades."

100% Cabernet Sauvignon, our family’s Little Treasure - Tesorina - represents the best from each vintage. The very best of 2016 were two barrels of Cabernet from a small block on our Grigsby Vineyard. Exceptional flavors, a lush mouthfeel, and an opulent finish make this a spectacular representation of a classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.
