Viader Cabernet Sauvignon-Cabernet Franc 2000 is a refined and complex blend from Napa Valley’s Viader Vineyards, sourced from their Howell Mountain estate. The 2000 vintage offers a bouquet of blackberry, cassis, and plum, with layers of graphite, spice, and earthy minerality. The palate is rich and balanced, with polished tannins and vibrant acidity that frame the concentrated fruit. Subtle hints of mocha, leather, and herbs add depth, while the finish is long and elegant, with a touch of cedar. Viader’s artisanal winemaking, including hand-harvesting and French oak aging, ensures a wine of precision and finesse. Perfect for pairing with grilled steak or aged cheeses, this Cabernet Sauvignon-Cabernet Franc blend is a collector’s gem, reflecting the unique terroir of Howell Mountain and offering a sophisticated drinking experience.
