CAKEBREAD, ‘NAPA VALLEY’ CHARDONNAY 2019
Composition
100% Chardonnay
Tasting Notes
This wine opens with aromas of ripe golden apple with white peach and notes of sweet oak. On the palate, apple and pear characters are balanced by fresh acidity, and the finish is clean, with appealing mineral notes. This is a versatile pairing wine—we enjoy it with a wide variety of seafood, chicken and fresh pasta recipes.
CAKEBREAD, ‘NAPA VALLEY’ SAUVIGNON BLANC 2020
Composition
99% Sauvignon Blanc, 1% blend Viognier/Verdejo/Semillon
Tasting Notes
Our 2020 Sauvignon Blanc opens with aromas of pink grapefruit, ripe melon, sweet citrus, and appealing notes of hay. The citrus and melon characters carry over onto a bright fruit palate, supported by crisp acidity and elevated by a hint of mineral citrus on the finish.
CAKEBREAD, ‘NAPA VALLEY’ CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2018
Composition
88.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.2% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot, 1.1% Syrah, 0.5% Malbec, 0.5% Cabernet Franc, 0.5% Petite Sirah
Tasting Notes
Our classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon reveals aromas of ripe blackberry and boysenberry with hints of dark chocolate and sweet oak. On the palate, the dark fruit is balanced by fresh acidity and lush tannins that carry all the way over a lingering, elegant finish—with just a kiss of minerality.
