This is a special wine because of how low the yields were in Napa Valley in the 2020 vintage due to the horrible fires that ravaged the valley that year. Jill and Steve Matthiasson assessed the wind patterns and the ripeness of their fruit and decided to start harvesting after the first set of fires and were able to avoid smoke taint with all of their fruit. This wine is a blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4 % Petit Verdot, and 1% Cabernet Franc, aged in <20% new French Oak and showcases high toned fruit and a purity and freshness I've come to love.
Steve Matthiasson, who got his start as a heralded vineyard manager, and his wife, Jill Klein Matthiasson, an ivy league educated botanist, have become a formidable duo in the world of winemaking. The critical acclaim for their approach to farming, as well as their winemaking, and wines, seems to have no bounds. The list is too long to include here, but some of the highlights include recognition from the James Beard Foundation and winemaker of the year honors from California wine guru Jon Bonné of the San Francisco Chronicle.
