2004 Nickel & Nickel Vogt Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Located atop Howell Mountain in the northeastern Napa Valley, Vogt Vineyard features shallow, rocky soils transitioning to deeper loam. Despite its steepness, the vineyard benefits from good southeast exposure, resulting in dense, structured wines. Nickel and Nickel characterizes the 2004 release as "riper and richer" compared to preceding vintages, noting floral and berry aromas with dark berry and cassis flavors on the palate, complemented by oak-derived vanilla and cedar. Intensely structured with thick, full tannins, this wine promises further development with cellar aging.
