Grand Napa Vineyards ‘Stone Crib’ Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford 2018
Captivating aromas of crunchy berries, sage, dusty oak, raspberry, and menthol. The medium to full body has a raw chalkiness about it that is very enticing. Loads of dark fruit on the palate and crushed rocks. The name describes it perfectly – a stone crib. Acidity and tannin are interwoven nicely. The long-drawn-out finish keeps you wanting more.
One of the best parts of walking the Napa Valley vineyards is finding the neighbors to some of the rarest wines in the valley. We drove through Rutherford recently to look out over Scarecrow’s vineyard alongside the Mayacama Mountain range and out came Dwight Bonewell, owner of Grand Napa Vineyards. He walked the rows with us and showed us the sheer quality of this heavenly soil in Rutherford. This dirt is dense, dark, and full of rocks. All this plays into the tension the grapes need to thrive.
Bonewell has created something truly special in Rutherford. He has an array of wines in all price points and styles, and this 2018 Stone Crib Cabernet hit the spot for us and at a fraction of the price as his neighbor. Take advantage of this special pricing and if you can trust us on a 6 bottle purchase, we’ll cover your ground shipping.
