• Rafael Vineyard, a 50-acre site planted in 1985.
• At the base of Mount Veeder, 300-500 feet in elevation.
• Sedimentary soils with weathered sandstone and shale.
• Sustainably farmed.

• Harvested September 15, 2022.

Founded in 2010 by Erin and Massimo Di Costanzo, the estate focuses on carefully grown, age-worthy Cabernet with freshness, site expression and classical structure.

Wild blackberry, fresh sage and cedar lead into cassis, black cherry and mocha. The palate is expansive and full-bodied, framed by firm, velvety tannins, with leather, dried herbs and graphite adding savory complexity.

• Single-vineyard Napa Cabernet with unusual value and precision.
• Low new-oak percentage keeps fruit and site character forward.
• Refreshing structure balances the vintage's concentration.
