The 2020 Cathiard Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Napa is a remarkable wine that truly embodies the essence of Napa Valley. With its deep red color and enticing aromas, it immediately captivates the senses.

In 1986, a small block of Abbey Ridge vineyard was specially planted with the Martin Ray Massale of Pino Noir. Now, 30 years later, we harvested and fermented these vines separately to produce 2 berrels of an exceptional wine.

A nearly opaque color sets in the glass with a hard, red complexion that is almost black. Aromas of ripe blueberries and candied plum mingle with toasted oak and charred vanilla. The entry is soft and inviting which paves the way for a lush mid-palate replete with layers of ripe boysenberry and cassis.

Dazzling straw-gold in color, the wine serves up superrich aromas of ripe pineapple, vanilla bean, raw coconut, and honeyed lemon. The entry is supremely lush with complex flavors of roasted fig, apricot, green apple, and orchard fruit.

An alluring inky-purple achievement, the 2021 Abstract is replete with a vivid nose of red and black stone fruits, candied cherry, cassis, dried floral notes, and sweet oak accents.

There’s a mini-trend of Burgundian masters making wine in Oregon. Jean-Nicolas Meo and his old friend, Jay Boberg, is a super-exciting example of just why this trend is such a good thing.
