Cakebread Cellars Our 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon grabs the taster's attention immediately with enticingly fresh fruit-forward aromas of black currant, blackberry and boysenberry, joined by seductive chocolate and roast coffee scents. Beautifully structured on the palate, it boasts intense, concentrated, dark berry and cassis flavors balanced by supple, well-knit tannins and a long, flavorful finish with fine acidity and savory mocha tones. Delightful to drink now, this rich, elegant Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon will blossom fully with another 5 to 7 years of bottle age.
Wine Spectator
A savory, dry, herbal and earthy youngster, taut, full-bodied, with dried currant, mocha and cedar notes that turn drier and more tannic. Needs decanting. Best from 2011 through 2017. Score: 87 - James Laube, 2010.

The Vineyard
Cakebread Cellars has vineyard properties located throughout Napa Valley and recently added a location in the Anderson Valley. The winery ranches surrounding the production facility in Rutherford are where it all began. The first 22-acre parcel was purchased in 1972. Over the years, the family has continued to acquire additional vineyard parcels throughout Napa Valley and the North Coast. Today, the winery owns 13 sites totaling 420 acres, 340 of which are currently planted. This judicious acquisition and development of vineyard land enables us to more completely control the quality of the fruit we grow and the wines we make. To view details on each of our properties use the links in the left hand sidebar.
