Napa Valley Cabernet with Power & Elegance with Cathy Corison - San Francisco Chronicle's Winemaker of the Year 2011"
Winegrower Cathy Corison produces artisanal Cabernet Sauvignon that speaks of place, sourcing great benchland vineyards between Rutherford and St. Helena in the Napa Valley.
Cathy's wines are noted for their consistency and impeccable balance. Powerful and elegant at the same time, they grace the table and enjoy a long, distinguished life.
“I handcraft my Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignons, without compromise, from some of the finest vineyards in the Napa Valley - a region that is among the best places in the world for making Cabernet. These benchland vineyards are located between Rutherford and St. Helena, where deep, stony alluvial soils provide ideal growing conditions for the Cabernet vine. These vines regularly produce some of the most concentrated and superbly ripened fruit anywhere.
My philosophy is to make complex wines that walk the fine line between power and elegance. I employ time-honored winemaking techniques, using only small French oak barrels sourced from several forests for complexity. Mine is a hands-off approach to winemaking; it is my job to let the vineyards speak.”
