bout the Winery:
Vin Soleil began crafting Napa Valley wine in 2013, and is a local and minority owned business.
“Wine of the Sun," Vin Soleil exemplifies the impeccable sun ripened fruit and rich soil of the world renowned Napa Valley.
Vin Soleil offers small-batch, Bordeaux style wines that are always 100% sourced from the best of Napa Valley grapes. Harvesting and wine making in limited quantities allows for a carefully crafted, uniquely bold wine experience.
Vin Soleil's grapes all come from the Oak Knoll District. The unique positioning of the Oak Knoll District, at the southern border of Napa's sub-regions near San Pablo Bay, gives it a cooler and more moderate temperature than almost any region in Napa Valley. Known as the "sweet spot," this gives the fruit optimal time to develop slowly and grow into its elegant flavors.
About the Wine:
Tasted by Master Sommelier Jeremiah Morehouse, here's what he had to say:
"The lifeblood of Napa Valley, Cabernet Sauvignon can easily demonstrate just how varied the valley can be in any given vintage. Oak Knoll, as seen through the lens of this single vineyard, demonstrates a more moderate and slower growing season.
With this 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon, we start to see an emergence of flavors beyond dark rich fruit on the nose, where faint tobacco and fallen leaves begin to blossom. More floral and savory on the palate, with a roundness to the tannins that show grace and poise."
