PRODUCT OVERVIEW/REVIEW:
Scattered Peaks is an elevated spin on Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon elegantly crafted by wine industry icon Derek Benham and legendary Napa Valley Winemaker Joel Aiken. Leveraging their deep passion for – and long history within – the California wine industry, Derek and Joel harvest superior fruit from coveted regions throughout the Napa Valley. They age their grapes in carefully curated oak barrels and artfully blend fruit from various vineyard sites so that their finished wines are greater than the sum of their parts.*
Scattered Peaks is a creative marriage of Derek’s greatest loves: surfing, skiing, and wine. A powerful triple-entendre, the term ‘Scattered Peaks’ refers to a surfing condition when waves approaching the shore split, creating different wave peaks. Secondly, the term signifies the many snowy peaks around the world that he has conquered with unmatched enthusiasm. Finally, ‘Scattered Peaks’ refers to the vineyards dotted across the world-renowned Napa Valley.*
Aged for 18 months in French oak, the Scattered Peaks Cabernet Sauvignon "has intense black and red fruit aromas bolstered by hints of anise. On the palate, opulent and brooding fruit flavors of black cherry and cassis mingle with hints of black licorice and violets as well as dark cocoa notes. Fine and velvety tannins and a touch of vanilla support the long, lingering finish of this classic Napa Valley Cabernet." (winemaker notes)
