The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Gravel Series Secret Garden captures all the magic from this site on the Oakville/Yountville border. Sumptuous, layered and super-expressive, the Secret Garden is absolutely impeccable in its balance. Dark cherry, raspberry jam, wild flowers, spice, mocha and new leather fill out the wine's frame . Time in the glass brings out attractive floral overtones that add finesse.

Made of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the deep purple-black colored 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Secret Garden has a savory, meaty nose with menthol, chargrill, cassis, florals and tobacco with a waft of kirsch. Full, rich and decadent, it is spicy/perfumed in mouth with a velvety texture and long finish.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Gravel Series Secret Garden offers a super-appealing combination of fruit density and freshness, done in the mid-weight style that characterizes the Round Pond wines today. Dark raspberry, plum and lavender all grace this mid-weight, exquisite Cabernet Sauvignon. Pliant, with soft curves and terrific overall balance, the 2016 has so much to offer.
