In 2017 Hossein and Bob launched a new brand called Avid. With limited production of not more than 1000 cases per varietal, Avid wines are a rare pleasure! The grapes are sourced exclusively from designated appellation vineyards in Napa Valley and their own single vineyard in the Petaluma Gap AVA within Sonoma County.
The Avid Spring Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon was made from different vineyard sites on the eastern slopes of the Spring Mountain District in Napa Valley. The soils in that region produce extremely low yields of intensely flavored, long-lived wines and exceptional quality Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes were fermented in stainless steel, filtered, and then aged in a combination of 70% (30% new) French and 30% American oak barrels for nine months.
The 2017 vintage is showing classic characteristics of Spring Mountain. Deep plum robe with ruby rim. Aromas of black plum, blueberry and caramel. The palate shows boysenberry, plum and a hint cocoa integrated with a layer of bright red fruits. Smooth oak and tannins balance out the fruit on the long, tapering finish. 850 cases produced.
