The LaCour Cuvee is a proprietary blend in the great traditions of Bordeaux and Napa Valley. It has been a long-term dream of ours to produce a wine that has the quality of the Reserve at the same time be of a more subtle, supple style. Also offered only in very limited quantities, the LaCour will be eventually only available to Club Members. The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes for LaCour come from our prized block with perfect exposure at highest elevation of the estate. The Cabernet Franc and Malbec originate at a priced block at Vineyard 29. The wine is barreled for over 20 months in 100% new French oak.
Available for sale: 2018, 2019
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon LaCour is a pliant and racy to the core, the 2019 is a total charmer. Silky tannins wrap around a core of inky red cherry/plum fruit, cinnamon and flowers. LaCour offers gorgeous depth, freshness and energy, all accented by a healthy dollop of Cabernet Franc. Drinking window 2024-2023. 94 points
