True to its origins, the Synthesis has a complex bouquet of dried baking herbs and bold red and purple fruits along the lines of Maraschino cherries, figs and spiced baked plums. The Bordeaux blenders add a complementary hint of blueberries and toasted marshmallows. The Synthesis Cabernet Sauvignon blend is a beautiful compromise between the softer, more readily approachable structure of Napa’s valley floor fruit, and the large chewy tannins that define Napa’s mountain appellations.

A blend of some of the best vineyards in Yountville, Rutherford, Oakville, Stags Leap District, Howell Mountain, Mount Veeder, and Diamond Mountain District.
