Item Description

Karl Lawrence
2017 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, 1.5L and
Logo Ballcap + Wine Carrier

The 2017 vintage is described as “finesse, great complexity of flavor, and elegant.”

Our winemaker, Bruce Devlin, says that the wine has a refined palate with full, rich, silky tannins adding strength to the finish. Deep garnet-purple in color, it springs from the glass with pronounced black currant cordial, plum preserves and blueberry pie scents plus touches of dusty soil, stewed tea, tobacco and wild sage. Full-bodied, the generous black fruit preserves are framed by ripe, grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with an herbal lift. -300 cases produced.

Sourced from the Pocai’ Vineyard, Karl Lawrence’s 2017 vintage is 87% Cabernet Sauvignon blended with 7% Petite Sirah, 3% Mablec, 1.5% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot, and 0.5% Lagrein.

Auction lot includes a logo ballcap and reusable 6-bottle carrier bag.
