Cabernet Sauvignon | Napa Valley Winemaker’s Comments The 2014 Correlation Wine Company Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot. The fruit is sourced from two estate vineyards farmed on top of Spring Mountain, as well as the Beckstoffer Melrose Vineyard in Rutherford, CA. Martha McClellan and Wesley Steffens worked in tandem to craft this inaugural release. The resulting wine shows very focused yet fresh and vibrant aromatics, polished tannins with great tension, smooth texture throughout the wine ending with a very pleasing and lengthy finish. This wine will drink very well upon release, as well will continue to reward with aging in the cellar for many years to come. Wine Reviews 94 pts. | Correlation Wine Co. | 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon “His 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Merlot and Petit Verdot. This is a 1,100-case cuvee showing loads of blueberry and blackcurrant fruit, licorice, charcoal embers and baking spices. It is dense, full-bodied, ripe and much in the style of 2014 with its lusciousness and elegant precociousness. Drink it over the next 15 or so years. This is the debut vintage of this impressive wine from winemaker and owner Wesley Steffens.” —Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, December 2016 About Correlation Wine Company The wines from Correlation Wine Company are first and foremost reflections of our passion, our experience, and ultimately founded upon the relationships we’ve made since our family first arrived in the Napa Valley in 1999.

Cabernet Sauvignon | Napa Valley

Winemaker’s Comments

The 2014 Correlation Wine Company Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot. The fruit is sourced from two estate vineyards farmed on top of Spring Mountain, as well as the Beckstoffer Melrose Vineyard in

Rutherford, CA.

finish. This wine will drink very well upon release, as well will continue to reward with aging in the cellar for many years to come.
