Napa Valley

Medium

Natural Cork

The name "Herrick" refers to the Herrick Vineyard, a specific site in Yountville from which Conn Creek sources grapes for this wine. At 12 years old at the time of tasting, this Napa Cabernet is in an ideal stage of its evolution, having shed its youthful exuberance and matured into a polished and expressive wine. Precise and fragrant, it showcases currant fruits, tobacco, and a touch of charcuterie and bacon fat layered with earthy truffle notes. Firm, integrated tannins bring balance, offering a subtle sweetness and a delicate tobacco-scented edge. Savoury elements of olive tapenade, black liquorice, tarweed, and crushed rock minerality add complexity, leading to a long and satisfying finish—a beautifully structured and harmonious Cabernet.
