The 2016 Sleeping Lady was aged for 19 months in 75% new French oak. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the iconic Sleeping Lady Vineyard in Yountville is remarkably expressive and fresh, with bright cherry fruit and an incredible spicy richness of coriander, accented by a hint of white truffle, charcuterie, and cedarwood. Medium-bodied on the palate, with silken, super-fine tannins, blackcurrants, loamy earth, and liquorice, all building toward the finish, gaining volume and intensity. There's a superb balance of concentration and levity, with a long finish marked by graphite minerality. This is in a remarkable place.
