About the wine
Deep garnet in color with lush aromas of warm blueberry, dried cherry, brown sugar and allspice with hints of licorice, briary and toasty oak. The entry of this Cabernet Sauvignon is silky, smooth and supple. A subtle minerality complements flavors of black cherry, fresh strawberry and star anise. This wine is well-structured with velvety tannins and a lasting finish.
Generations is a tribute to the Raymond family’s five generations of winemaking in the Napa Valley. This limited production wine is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and the winery’s ultimate expression of this varietal. Grapes were fermented on the skins for 8-10 days, this short fermentation regime selected so as to capture the “juicy” fruit. The juice was then moved to new, tight-grained, medium toast French oak barrels for 18-20 months of aging before blending. Only our best barrels from forests in Nevers, Allier and the Center of France are selected to become part of this blend.
