The aromatics are dominated by black fleshy stone fruit. Mineral notes, crushed bricks, smoked paprika, blond tobacco, and cocoa powder aromas are also present. Very attractive and pleasant nose, and very nicely layered. Blue and black fruits, especially blackberry, define the palate, mixed with graphite, white pepper, and light black olive flavors. The finish is really long, expressing notes of herbs and a little black licorice.
Paon Description
Paon is the culmination of traditional winemaking techniques, progressive hillside farming, and a singular source of exceptional Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.
Located in the northern stretch of the Mt. Veeder appellation, Paon Vineyard is directly west of Mt. St. John’s highest elevation. The vineyard elevation ranges from 900 to 1200 feet, and has a south/southeast exposure. The diverse soil composition varies between weathered sandstone and shale, resulting in porous well-drained soils, low yields and moderate vigor. Five acres of Cabernet Sauvignon clones 169 and 338 were densely planted to rootstock 101-14. The unique microclimate, topography, and astute farming of the Paon Vineyard site
result in a classic wine of depth, nuance, and pedigree.
