Cardinale

Cardinale was born in 1982, with a mission to produce a singular Cabernet Sauvignon from the highest-quality vineyards in Napa Valley. All sub-appellations of the region were to be considered, and grape sources could change from year to year, to create the most distinctive wine from each vintage.

Mountain-grown grapes have increasingly emerged as the foundation for the Cardinale blend – particularly those from Mount Veeder and Howell Mountain – yet benchland grapes and a small amount of Merlot add layers of complexity in every vintage.
