“This wine transcends reality – a mind-boggling effort that every wine lover deserves to taste once in their life. A true bucket list Cabernet Sauvignon… it’s a tour de force, a majestic achievement and a showcase for what Napa is increasingly doing.”
– Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
Based in the venerated Napa Valley, Carter Cellars is a wine producer that makes classic California varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot sourced from some of the best vineyards in Northern California. From the To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville to the Truchard Vineyards in Carneros, Owner Mark Carter has made sure to obtain fruit from impressive terroirs throughout the Napa Valley. The label was founded by Mark and celebrated winemaker Nils Venge, who went on to begin Envy Wines in Calistoga in 2006. The pair now makes both wine brands in their Calistoga location, while continuing to source grapes from different, remarkable plots all through the valley.
The Carter Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Weitz Vineyard 2012 is a limited production, single-vineyard wine from Oakville, showcasing the elevated, rocky volcanic soils of the Weitz Vineyard. This wine reflects the opulence of the 2012 vintage, characterized by ripe tannins and a full-bodied texture. Its flavor profile is rich with dark berries, mocha, plum, and cassis, complemented by hints of black licorice, sage, and earthy nuances. The creamy mouthfeel and layered complexity are enhanced by sweet floral and spice notes on the finish, promising an enjoyable experience for years to come. This wine is crafted entirely from Cabernet Sauvignon.
