PRIME 2013 Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon - 1.5L Magnum
91 POINTS Robert Parker (Dec. 2015) A sleeper selection for sure, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon from Coombsville, which includes 7% Cabernet Franc and 4% Merlot in the blend, shows nice earthy blackcurrant fruit, meatiness, and beef blood. The wine is medium to full-bodied with good purity, ripeness, and plenty of personality.

After working with grapes from all over California, PRIME's winemaker, Ted Henry, launched PRIME Cellars with the 2005 vintage to focus on a prime piece of Napa Valley called Coombsville. With its cooler temperatures and unique flavor and acid profile, Coombsville was approved as Napa Valley's newest AVA in 2012. In 2013 we opened our Downtown Napa tasting room at 974 Franklin Street.
Ted is the winemaker at Napa Valley's Clos du Val and has been making wine in Napa Valley since his graduation from UC Davis' winemaking program in 1999. PRIME wines are extremely limited with production levels of less than 1000 cases annually.
