Cardinale
Cardinale was born in 1982, with a mission to produce a singular Cabernet Sauvignon from the highest-quality vineyards in Napa Valley. All sub-appellations of the regions were to be considered, and grape sources could change from year to year to create the most distinctive wine from each vintage. Today, Cardinale is sourced solely from Napa Valley and is primarily sourced from mountain vineyards.
