2017 Vintage

In February 2019, Winemaker Stephanie Putnam and Proprietor Jean-Charles Boisset hosted the ninth annual blending series at Raymond Vineyards with thirteen influential sommeliers. Together, the sommeliers crafted a unique Cabernet Sauvignon, blended from the finest quality grapes in Napa, Sonoma and Lake Counties. The Sommelier Selection is an exclusive on-premise offering from an iconic Napa winery and a small cadre of the county’s most prestigious sommeliers; it is an ideal addition to any by-the-glass list.
