Item Description
The 1998 Lone Canyon Cabernet is rich, bold and daring. The wine shows intense dark color and aromas consisting of black cherries, cocoa, black licorice, spices, figs and brown sugar with brambly undertones. A lively yet full bodied entry hits the palate with enticing flavors of blackberry and cassis. This wine is layered with tannins that are bold and masculine while maintaining a velvety character. The dark and ripe fruit flavors intertwined with the tannins carry through to an unusually long and plush finish.
The Ladera Lone Canyon vineyard has a unique terroir which allows the fruit to showcase the vintage at hand. Lone Canyon Ranch is located on the flank of Mt. Veeder in the southwestern hills of the Napa Valley. The ranch consists of 75 planted acres of vineyards. The topography is very steep in most areas with elevations reaching 1,100 feet above sea level. The clay loam soils are of moderate depth and are very well drained. The average yields were 2 tons per acre.
