2021 Del Dotto "Cave Blend", Napa Valley, California, USA

The Cave Blend is a complex and intriguing wine that is perfect for everyday enjoyment. The nose is awash in the aromas of dark, juicy berries with hints of baking spices and cedar. The palate is smooth and silky, with a long, lingering finish. This wine would pair well with a variety of dishes, from hearty pasta to grilled meats. It is also a great wine to enjoy on its own.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Located in the beautiful Napa Valley, Del Dotto Family Wineries & Caves focus on small production, premium wines. Dave Del Dotto has spent the past 30 years acquiring vineyards in some of the best American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) including Rutherford, Oakville, St. Helena, Howell Mountain, and Fort Ross-Seaview Sonoma Coast. Currently, our family produces cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, sangiovese and sauvignon blanc from our Napa Valley vineyards, as well as pinot noir, chardonnay and limited amounts of syrah, sauvignon blanc, sparkling grenache and mourvedre from our Cinghiale (wild boar) Vineyard in the King Ridge region of the Sonoma Coast.

Although the Del Dotto story begins on our Rutherford Estate, it has expanded to include seven other specially selected appellations.

Currently our footprint consists of 437 acres with 121 acres planted of varietals including chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, pinot noir, syrah, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot and sangiovese. It took 18 years to find the ideal sites to cultivate each individually selected grape clone and to maximize the terroir flavors in the wines. Each vineyard is organically farmed, with no chemical sprays or fertilizers, and all weeding performed by hand. The plants are meticulously cared for by professional vineyard workers in order to maintain the quality of the crop that defines the Del Dotto reputation.
