Seavey Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2007

The Winery

Seavey

“Conn Valley is still somewhat of a no man’s land of Napa Valley, hidden away to the east of the renowned resort of Meadowood, but there’s no question that the Seaveys, backed up by brilliant French winemaker Phillipe Melka, are turning out fabulously rich, long-lived Cabernet Sauvignons that could withstand 20-30 years of cellaring.”-Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Nestled in the heart of St. Helena, Seavey Vineyard is one of the most traditional wineries focusing on historic winemaking techniques rather than modern trends. William and Mary Seavey purchased the historic estate of Seavey Vineyard in 1979 which was originally founded by the Franco-Swiss Farming Company in 1881. They began making wines from vines that were planted almost a century before knowing that the land was groomed to grow world-class Cabernet Sauvignon, along with high-quality Petit Verdot and Chardonnay.

Today, under the management of their children, the estate runs with the same devoted values even maintaining an inventory of every vintage of their Cabernet Sauvignon in their Seavey Vineyard Wine Library. With earthy and rustic aromatics, the wines from Seavey are effortless, timeless, and wonderful collectibles for all.

Summary

The Seavey Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 from Napa Valley is a remarkable expression of the region, showcasing the estate's dedication to quality and tradition. This wine is crafted from estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon with a small percentage of Petit Verdot, aged for around 20 months in French oak, which imparts a rich complexity. The 2007 vintage is noted for its density and concentration, revealing aromas of blackberries, cassis, and tobacco, complemented by hints of mocha and earthy undertones. It possesses a plush yet accessible texture with well-integrated tannins and vibrant acidity, ensuring a long and harmonious finish. This wine is meant for aging, promising to evolve beautifully over the decades to come. Blend: 90.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9.5% Petit Verdot.


Tasting Notes

WS94
Good deep ruby. Sexy, expressive aromas of plum, tobacco, stone and earth, with a wild, meaty nuance. Sweet and lush but not overdone, with harmonious acidity giving shape and energy to the redcurrant, tobacco and game flavors. A rather suave cabernet that conveys real soil character. Finishes impressively long, with hints of mocha and nutty oak and nicely integrated tannins.
