Generations is a tribute to the Raymond family’s five generations of winemaking in Napa Valley. This limited-production wine is 100% Cabernet. Grapes were fermented on the skins for 26-55 days to lend complexity and depth to the wine before being racked to new, tight-grained, medium, and medium-plus toast French oak barrels for 19 months of aging. Only our best barrels of Taransaud, Demptos, and Baron and Ermitage were selected for this Cabernet Sauvignon. We are especially proud of the 2014 vintage as it marks the 20-year Anniversary of the Generations wine originally created by the Raymond family.
Dark ruby in the glass. Our 2014 Generations Cabernet Sauvignon opens with alluring aromas of black cherry, mulling spices and huckleberry with subtle notes of dark cocoa and caramelized brown sugar. This velvety wine is seductive on the palate with sweet tannins with notes of red cassis and graphite. Well-balanced, this wine will ages beautifully for another 25 to 30 years but is very approachable and inviting right now.
