The 2019 vintage of Oakville Winery Cabernet exemplifies the old-world elegance of the Oakville AVA, with aromas of blackberry and raspberry along with subtle notes of rose petal, cedar and cassis. On the palate, mouthwatering layers of black cherry and blackberry are rounded out with sweet notes of toffee, vanilla cream and cocoa. The smooth, refined tannins create a luxurious texture that lead to a beautiful lengthy finish synonymous with world class Cabernet.\n \n Producer Information\n The Pelissa family has been fortunate to own and farm vineyards in Napa Valley for over 100 years. As 5th generation grape-growers, their hearts will always be in the vineyards, where the life of a wine begins. That’s why all 635 acres of their grapes are 100% certified organically-farmed. Oakville Winery Wines is their way of taking grape-growing one step further. Utilizing fruit from their family estate vineyards in the prized Oakville appellation, we create high quality Napa Valley wines that are accessible to everyone. The wines possess an unwavering commitment to quality, a farming legacy that has lasted over a century, and their family’s longtime, unique heritage in Napa Valley. Oakville Winery was first established in November 1877 as Brun & Chaix, Oakville Winery. It was the 9th bonded winery in California. In 1993, when the Pelissa family purchased the winery and surrounding vineyards, it was sold to them, as The Oakville Winery. The Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards are planted adjacent to the winery, the essence of an estate definition in the center of the Oakville appellation. This family has owned vineyards in Napa Valley since 1903. They strive to produce wines that represent the land and its heritage. The Ghost Block Estate Wines Portfolio always represents Napa Valley's best quality at reasonable prices. The "new" Oakville Winery will produce wines from the same vineyards and the same location as the founding winery, thus continuing a 132 year old tradition. In a real sense, the name Oakville Winery was chosen for us from the beginning. The Oakville appellation is precious to all of us who share this region's bounty.
