With dark ruby red colors and a hint of purple at the rim, the bouquet is brimming with sweet cherry and milk chocolate, as well as caramel and cinnamon in the background. There are also hints of currant and sandalwood. The entry is smooth and balanced with medium body and flavors echoing the bouquet. The evolution is seamless with fine-grain tannins and ample acidity. The finish is very pleasing with a good length and balance. The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes come from our Kreuse Canyon Hillside Vineyard. The Merlot grapes are from our Hardman Vineyard near Silverado County Club, and the Petit Verdot is grown on our Monticello Vineyard. The Syrah comes from the Carneros region.The 2006 Provocative Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot, and 10% Syrah
