Maxville 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Chiles Valley AVA
Maxville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Our Estate Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the Chiles Valley AVA, a sub-appellation of the Napa Valley nestled in the Vaca Mountains. The climate is cooler than the main Napa Valley floor due to our elevations of 900 -1200 feet, which allows for development of flavor and color while retaining natural acidity.
Our unique and distinctive terroir creates Cabernet Sauvignon grapes with deep, rich fruit flavors, fine tannins and natural, fresh acidity that is critical to cellaring.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Dark opulent ruby and garnet hues with tantalizing aromas of black currant jam, earthy and ripe dark fruits layered with hints of vanilla, cassis and black pepper. The palate has a supple entry that lingers to the back of the mouth with firm tannin structures.
Production Notes
Varietals: 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petite Sirah
Winemaker Notes
7-day cold-soak followed by a quick, warm fermentation. The wine was left on the skins for one week after fermentation finished. Malolactic fermentation was done in barrels; the wine was racked once post-malo and once pre-bottling.
Food Pairing Notes
Pairs delightfully with a hardy meal such as steak, prime-rib, lamb, and barbecued meats.
