Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The classic Long Meadow Ranch style remains in this welcoming bright blend of Cabernet Sauvignon fruit from our mountain and valley estates. Fresh Bing cherry, blackberry, and pomegranate seed delight on entry. The palate unfolds with more subtle earthy and savory notes of graphite, fennel seed, and vanilla bean. Texturally, the natural mountain fruit acidity layers with the persistent but soft tannins and just the right amount of oak for a lasting and memorable finish.

Pair with grass-fed beef, braised lamb shanks or roasted game.

Professional Ratings

    Earthy dung and compost give this wine a wild edge, followed by additionally savory highlights of leather and tobacco. Made in an elegant, understated style, with balanced ripeness, the fruit is a mix of plum and cassis, finished in cedar and clove.

    COMMENTARY: The 2017 Long Meadow Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon shows tremendous energy on the palate. TASTING NOTES: This wine excels with aromas and flavors of ripe cherries and hints of earth. Pair it with an old-fashioned, slowed-cooked beef stew. (Tasted: June 21, 2022, San Francisco, CA)

One of the most prestigious wines of the world capable of great power and grace, Napa Valley Cabernet is a leading force in the world of fine, famous, collectible red wine. Today the Napa Valley and Cabernet Sauvignon are so intrinsically linked that it is difficult to discuss one without the other. But it wasn’t until the 1970s that this marriage came to light; sudden international recognition rained upon Napa with the victory of the Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars 1973 Cabernet Sauvignon in the 1976 Judgement of Paris.

Cabernet Sauvignon undoubtedly dominates Napa Valley today, covering half of the land under vine, commanding the highest prices per ton and earning the most critical acclaim. Cabernet Sauvignon’s structure, acidity, capacity to thrive in multiple environs and ability to express nuances of vintage make it perfect for Napa Valley where incredible soil and geographical diversity are found and the climate is perfect for grape growing. Within the Napa Valley lie many smaller sub-AVAs that express specific characteristics based on situation, slope and soil—as a perfect example, Rutherford’s famous dust or Stags Leap District's tart cherry flavors.
