Item Description
Two Bottles of Hoopes 2010 (Estate) Cabernet Sauvignon, from Oakville, Napa Valley, valued at $68 per bottle.
Liparita is a century old Ghost Winery brand whose appellation-specific Cabernets were the pioneering wines of Napa Valley.
The 10-acre Hoopes Estate Vineyard is located on Yountmill Road at the southern end of the Oakville AVA. It was planted in 1983, to a Bordeaux clone of cabernet sauvignon on St George rootstock which avoided phylloxera and explains why it is some of the oldest cabernet in Oakville AVA. Fruit from Hoopes Estate was sold to other wineries until the first vintage of Hoopes was released in 1999.
Aging in French oak highlights distinctive aromas of cedar and tobacco followed by a big, concentrated cabernet impression. Try it with a charcoal grilled prime New York strip steak.
