Robert Sinskey Vineyards Pov Napa Valley 2016 750 ML

Elegant fruit characteristics of black and red berries, cherry compote and black plum are laced with notes of lavender, rose and dried herbs and framed by a delicate balance of French oak that elevates the aromatics and complements the richness.\n \n Producer Information\n Robert Sinskey Vineyards is a Napa Valley wine estate located in the Stags Leap District. The estate was founded by Robert Sinskey in 1988 and has been practicing certified organic and biodynamic farming since 1991. The estate is made up of 81 hectares (200 acres) of vineyard land in Stags Leap District and Carneros. Most of Robert Sinskey's wines are made from Carneros-grown fruit – primarily Pinot Noir as well as Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Muscat, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris and Zinfandel. The winery, however, is based in Stags Leap District. The estate received extensive re-planting after the Atlas Fire of 2017. The flagship of the wine portfolio is the Cabernet Sauvignon varietal wine, sourced from the Stags Leap vineyard called SLD. Grapes are almost completely dry-farmed, in order to reduce yields, leading to small clusters of grapes with thick skins. SLD is aged in 40-percent new oak for up to two years prior to bottling. The remaining Robert Sinskey portfolio is a combination of single-vineyard, varietal wines and a library collection of cellar-aged wines. The Commander Zinskey is an innovative release of a classic Napa Valley Zinfandel that is illustrated with a new heroic scene inspired by sci-fi tales.
