93+ Points: An outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character. In short, these are terrific wines 

“The 2017 Sauvignon Blanc Peak unfurls to reveal fragrant lime blossoms and honeysuckle scents over a core of fresh grapefruit, lemon curd and crushed rocks plus a waft of baker's yeast. Medium to full-bodied, it bursts in the mouth with loads of citrus and mineral layers and a crisp, refreshing line with a very long, chalky finish. 2018 –2025.” 

-Lisa Perrotti-Brown Wine Advocate, October 2018 

The 2016 vintage on Atlas Peak provided ideal growing conditions at our Edcora and Attelas estate vineyards. After several years of drought, much-needed winter rains replenished our soils. The wet winter was followed by a dry, temperate spring and summer. Because there was abundant sunshine to ripen the grapes, with no noteworthy heat spikes, the grapes were able to mature slowly, developing beautifully articulated varietal flavors, while preserving the natural acidity that is a key element of our wines. The lovely weather continued into harvest, ensuring that we were able to pick each block exactly when we wished. Overall, yields were down slightly in 2016, resulting in wines with rich, concentrated flavors, supple tannins, and layers of terroir-driven complexity.

With every vintage of our PEAK wines, our goal is to craft consummate expressions of our organically farmed estate vineyards on the high-mountain slopes of Napa Valley’s acclaimed Atlas Peak. To preserve the complexity of our vineyards, and ensure that we have numerous lots to choose from during blending, we individually ferment each block and varietal. Then after extensive sensory analysis, we select our very finest blocks and barrels of wine to craft our PEAK Attelas Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.

This lovely pale and golden straw-colored Sauvignon Blanc begins with a bouquet of citrus blossoms, fresh tangerines, Bosc pear, and jasmine. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine continues with flavors of ripe white grapefruits, mandarin oranges, and caramelized Meyer lemon cream along with notes of pineapple rind, lemon verbena, and wet slate. Clean acidity and pleasant texture frame the long and pure finish of this enjoyable and refreshing wine. 

This full-bodied wine starts with fragrant aromas of ripe blackberries, potpourri, freshly turned earth, and Chambord. On the palate, we find mouth-coating flavors of blueberries, Santa Rosa plums, and baking spices with a pleasant grip of ripe tannins coupled with notes of toffee, rhubarb compote, fresh sage and cigar box on the long and pleasant finish. 

With a rich ruby color, this full-bodied wine opens with aromas of cigar box, Bing cherries, cranberry sauce, saddle leather, and bay leaves. On the palate, we find flavors of Luxardo cherries, Campari, Valrhona chocolate, pomegranates, and apple tartlets, with robust tannins and hints of freshly turned earth and crushed rocks on the long and persistent finish.
