Purlieu Wines, a renowned producer in the Napa Valley, crafts exceptional wines with a focus on terroir-driven expressions. The Purlieu Cabernet Missouri Hopper is a testament to their dedication to quality and precision. This wine is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes sourced from the esteemed Missouri Hopper vineyard, located in the Oakville AVA of Napa Valley. The winemaking process involves meticulous hand-harvesting, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the purity of fruit. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels, which imparts a complex structure and depth. On the palate, it reveals rich flavors of dark berries, cassis, and hints of mocha, supported by a firm tannin structure and balanced acidity. This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
