Emblem is a reflection of both our winemaking tradition, and of the finest Cabernet Sauvignon fruit in Napa Valley. Rutherford, where our family has 25 years of winegrowing experience, historically produces classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon fruit of excellent quality. Our Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon is a true expression of its origin, its grapes harvested from a single vineyard east of the Napa River in the alluvial fan of the Vaca Range. The valley floor's warm climate and deep, well-drained soils produce vigorous vines that receive more sun exposure than in other parts of the Napa Valley.
Our Cabernet Sauvignon from Rutherford is rich, sophisticated and earthy, with concentrated dark berry and cassis aromas, beautifully balanced flavors of dried fruit and currants, and ripe, evolved tannins expressive of Rutherford dust. Its long, smooth finish marries rich fruit with savory, toasted oak tones.
