The Winery

Barrett & Barrett

Known as a superstar winemaking couple, Bo and Heidi Barrett have teamed up together for their very own project. While Bo comes from the famous Barrett's of Napa Valley, known for their wining Chardonnay in The Judgement of Paris in the 1970s, Heidi came to Napa Valley in the early 90s, helping to start some of the greatest cult wineries Napa had ever seen. The grapes in the Cabernets of Barrett and Barrett are hailing from the Barrett family plot, planted on volcanic soils within St. Helena in 1989. The site is across from the famous family owned Chateau Montelena, and the land is precious to the family. The first release was in 2008, and each vintage proves to be wholly Napa Valley.

Tasting Notes

WA97
Blackberry jam, black currants, pine, tar, menthol and licorice are some of the many aromas and flavors that take shape as the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon opens up. A picture perfect example of the vintage, the 2010 impresses for its imposing structure and phenomenal overall balance. The powerful, incisive tannins need time to soften, but this is nevertheless a super-impressive wine, even today. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030.
