Burmeister

Sometimes we come across hidden gems offered by insiders who have special connections with wineries who have a few barrels they are willing to part with as long as the source is not revealed. Burmeister is one of these superb finds. The provenance is amazing, hailing from a premier estate in the heart of Yountville that consistently produces high scoring wines. This is a remarkable value as their wines normally go for more than twice this price.

Yountville is renowned for producing some of Napa Valley's most elegant and intricate wines. The AVA's unique elegance stems from its southerly location, which exposes it to constant fog and wind. The low elevation of the valley floor creates ideal growing conditions for Cabernet. Yountville Cabernets are supple, showing complexity and finely knit tannins due to this relatively cooler climate.

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon was dry-farmed, encouraging the roots to delve deep into the soil and imbue the fruit with extra intensity and concentrated flavor. The wine is a true expression of Yountville's terroir, showcasing the best of this exceptional AVA.
