Napa Valley

Natural Cork

Warrior is an iron fist of a Cabernet that is profoundly structured with exotic layers of fruit, spices, florals, and a wealth of ironstone minerals. Swelling with a full-bodied richness of creamy textured blackberry and black cherry fruit, plus liquorice with hints of spearmint laced with tobacco. Pixelated tannins build the stature and presence of the wine on the palate, and the finish is long with wet slate. It is a complete and harmonious wine of freshness, power, and grace. Woodbridge purchased the David Fulton Vineyard in St. Helena on Fulton Lane, and a winery on site is now the home of Fortunate Son and 6ha of Cabernet Sauvignon vines managed by Jim Barbour. Woodbridge appointed his son Cameron as cellar master in 2023. Woodbridge acquired a second estate vineyard for the Fortunate Son label in 2022 called Larkmead Vineyards. The 7.5ha ranch has been renamed True Romance and will serve as the site of a future Fortunate Son winery and estate slated to open in 2027.
