In 1997, Gil Nickel opened Nickel & Nickel Winery on the 42-acre John C. Sullenger property in Oakville, California. They opened to the public in 2003 showcasing their Cabernet Sauvignon based portfolio as well as some of their Chardonnay, Merlot, and Syrah bottles. Nickel & Nickel sources its fruit from different vineyards across Napa Valley and showcases them in their single-vineyard wines. From Rutherford, Diamond Mountain, Howell Mountain, Stags Leap District, and beyond, the idea was to let each wine display its individual terroir. Vintage after vintage the wines continue to receive high praise from press and consumers alike, and represent high quality production in the Napa Valley.
The Nickel & Nickel Cabernet Sauvignon State Ranch 2019 is a distinguished single-vineyard wine from Napa Valley's Yountville AVA, showcasing the unique terroir of gravelly, well-drained soils. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is marked by a nose rich in cassis, blackcurrants, and nuanced hints of sage and mint. The palate presents a medium to full-bodied experience, characterized by fine tannins and a vibrant acidity that enhances its flavor profile. Notes of dark cherry, tobacco, and subtle earthiness contribute to its complexity, while a refined yet concentrated structure suggests excellent aging potential. This wine is a focused expression of its site, reflecting the meticulous hand-harvesting and fermentation methods employed. Limited production enhances its unique appeal.
