Lithology Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon | 14.5% ABV (Approx.) | 750 mL | Napa Valley, California | Estate & Sourced Vineyard Fruit

Process & Profile

The Lithology Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a premium red wine crafted under the vision of vintner Alejandro Bulgheroni and the Lithology winemaking team in St. Helena, Napa Valley. Sourced from select hillside and valley floor vineyards—including sites in Oakville, Rutherford, and St. Helena—the wine reflects the geological diversity that defines the brand’s name. Fermentation occurs in small stainless-steel tanks, followed by aging for nearly 22 months in French oak barrels (70% new). The result is a rich, structured Cabernet that captures both power and finesse, emblematic of world-class Napa winemaking.

  • Palate: Full-bodied and balanced with flavors of blackberry, plum, espresso, and cocoa complemented by fine tannins and minerality.

  • Finish: Long and polished, revealing layers of dark fruit, graphite, and sweet oak spice.
