| Varietals: | 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7.5% Malbec, 7% Merlot, 5.5% Petit Verdot |

| Climate: | Late season rains and cool temperatures resulted in a slightly delayed Spring, with bud break occurring in the third week of March, followed by consistent weather that facilitated an even flowering and balanced berry set across all varieties. Ideal conditions in June and July helped the vines progress to veraison by early August, while the late Summer heat enhanced the development of deep flavors and rich color in the red varieties, leading to a September harvest for Cabernet that produced expressive, concentrated fruit with natural acidity and softened tannins for a bold yet integrated wine. |

| Winemaker: | Stephen Cruzan |
| Elevage: | 20 months in 50% New French & Hungarian Oak |

ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
This Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is an exuberant example of the lush wines produced by our Titus Ranch Estate Vineyard. The wine leaps from the glass with notes of candied cherry, crushed raspberries, allspice, and a fresh bay note that lends it lift. The palate is open with purity on entry, knit together with beautiful acidity and fine-grained tannins. Chocolate-covered blueberry and polished red fruit lead to a lingering finish filled with crème brûlée and roasted coffee bean. Enjoy through 2036.
