Kelham Vineyards exemplifies Napa Valley prestige. From Oakville's legendary vineyards come Cabernets of remarkable intensity and longevity—wines that reflect both Napa's global prominence and the artistry of family-driven winemaking. Rich and expressive, the 2011 opens with black cherry and cassis, underpinned by graphite, tobacco leaf, and a hint of menthol. On the palate it is full‑bodied, offering firm, muscular tannins balanced by dark chocolate and espresso notes, finishing with lingering dried herb nuance and a touch of leather. “A very good wine from the challenging, cool and rainy 2011 growing season, offering classic cool-vintage character. Upfront notes of spearmint and tobacco leaf mingle with currant and dried cherry fruit, accented by spicy smoked paprika. Medium-bodied on the palate, with fine-grained tannins that carry a chocolaty quality, the wine reveals layered savory nuances—pressed violets and lavender, dried rosemary and sage, loamy earth and worn leather. There's a quiet density to the wine that settles on the mid-palate and lingers through a long, earthy finish.” – 93 Points, Decanter Magazine Drink Now through 2033
