PLATINUM
COLLECTION
I
n every vintage, there are a few wines that rise
above the rest. In recognition of this, we began
separating a few barrels of these rare wines to
bottle individually, creating The Platinum Collection.
Each of these wines evokes a clear connection
to the Napa Valley’s natural splendor. The wines
are simultaneously elegant, dense, and inviting—
conveying a clear glimpse into the soil, slopes, and
climate from which they came.
Our meticulous winemaking methodology includes:
night harvesting; hand sorting every berry; gentle
fermentation and extraction; and barrel aging on lees
to create more texture, richness, and complexity. We
source our fruit from some of the most renowned
growers and vineyards in the Napa Valley and
utilize our state-of-the-art winemaking facility to
produce the most precise and expressive Cabernet
Sauvignons possible.
Simply put, these wines reflect the artistry of our
winegrowing team and represent a micro-selection
of the best barrels from our singular mountain
vineyard sites.
