Alea Fina Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
ALEA FINA Cabernet Sauvignon embraces the beautiful tension that defines winemaking of the highest order: The thrilling unpredictability of nature. The meticulous dedication of the winegrower. The wisdom of the vintner’s guiding hand.
Borrowing from global languages and cultures, the wine’s unique moniker is inspired by the Chilean expression hilar fino, meaning an obsession with the finer details, a thoughtful contemplation of each intricate fiber. The Latin alea, meaning chance, alludes to nature’s inherent volition, its ultimate influence over our desired outcome.
Driven to steward our vines with the utmost reverence, we must still contend with the whims of soil, sun and sky. As such, ALEA FINA is an exquisite exploration of the intriguing intersection between terroir and humanity: The will of nature’s hand in every harvest. The fastidious care of the vines. The exacting craft of the winemaker.
ALEA FINA is the culmination of years spent in laser-focused pursuit of Napa Valley’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon vines. In the end, only the storied Rutherford Bench could render the extraordinary typicity of grape and place that defines ALEA FINA. The wine is a devoted messenger of its legendary terroir.
