Cabernet Sauvignon from Rutherford, Napa Valley, California

Notes from the Winemaker

Of course, 2017 will be remembered for the multiple wildfires that broke out on October 8th. While neither the winery nor any of the vineyards were in immediate danger, the fires upended the lives of every employee at Frog’s Leap, adding uncertainty to an already hectic time of year.

In the end, they were able to ensure that the fires did not compromise the quality of our wines. This 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon shows the blackcurrant fruit, dense palate, and dusty aromas that are classic to a Rutherford Cabernet. But this vintage will always contain something extra for a reminder of the deep roots of the vines, and the resiliency of the community at Frog’s Leap.

Blend: 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 8% Merlot

Reviews and Accolades

90 Points/Wine & Spirits
The unusual heat spikes throughout the summer of 2017 challenged the dry-farmed vines at Frog’s Leap, but they came through it with fruit that tastes light and bright. There’s some dimpled ripeness to its red-cherry flavors, and a little alcohol warmth in the end, but the overall impression is rich and sleek, spicy and bold.
