- Abundant aromas of blackcurrant and cherry are layered with hints of mocha, vanilla, and floral notes. The palate is rich and savoury, with polished tannins and notes of plum, black cherry, dried fig, and vanilla, culminating in a long, smooth finish. This is a rich, smooth Cabernet Sauvignon blend with abundant aromas of blackcurrant and cherry layered with hints of mocha, vanilla, and floral notes.
The hand-harvested 100% estate-grown grapes were fermented with selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks to retain the purity of fruit, with varying lengths of extended skin contact from 30 to 40 days to extract colour, flavour and fine tannins. Vinified without any additions, the wine matured for 18 months in French oak, 50% of which was new, and 50% was previously used to impart subtle character.
Abundant aromas of blackcurrant and cherry are layered with hints of mocha, vanilla, and floral notes. Rich and savoury on the palate, with polished tannins and notes of plum, black cherry, dried fig, and vanilla, culminating in a long, smooth finish.

Led by notable winemaker Elizabeth Vianna, Chimney Rock's award-winning wines have firmly cemented its reputation for producing some of the world's greatest estates, Cabernet Sauvignon.

| Winery | The estate comprises diverse soil types and topography that imbues the wines with distinct complexity. To the east, the steep hills and shallow soils bring density and power; at the northern end, the proximity to the Palisades imparts ripeness and purity of fruit, while to the south, the estate’s proximity to the San Pablo Bay provides breezes that add the nuance of cooler climate and adds hints of dried herbs and mint. This diversity has created 28 distinct vineyard blocks, each meticulously cultivated. The estate holds the Napa Green Vineyard certification, which provides a framework for growers to cultivate sustainably through improving soil health, becoming carbon neutral, implementing efficient water-use strategies, and incorporating integrated pest management techniques and soil cover crops. |
