96 points Decanter

Solomon Lot 70 is our purest expression of Napa Valley terroir, sourced each year from the best parcels of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes at our disposition. It has traditionally been made with grapes from our late Covenant partner Leslie Rudd's Oakville and Mount Veeder vineyards. However, we have also developed relationships with Napa growers who produce equally exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon, including Francis Mahoney, one of the region's original wine pioneers. The wine is named after Jeff's mothers family - the Solomons, and for for Leslie, whose Hebrew name was Shlomo (Solomon). The number, 70, is gematria (Hebrew numerology) for "wine."

Our thirteenth vintage of Solomon Lot 70 is phenomenally lush, supple-textured and loaded with ripe, black fruit and spice flavors. Dark, black fruit is at the fore, couched in continued and long-lasting layers of excellence. This might be our greatest Solomon Lot 70 yet.

Cheers 🍷
