2010 Drinkward Peschon Cabernet Sauvignon Entre Deux Meres
UNITED STATES / CALIFORNIA / NAPA
Wine Advocate | Rating: 93
Another gorgeous wine from this vintage, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Entre Deux Meres bursts from the glass with vibrant dark cherries, plums, mocha and espresso. Layers of aromas and flavor cover every inch of the palate in this powerful, structured, Cabernet Sauvignon. There is an element of vibrancy and freshness in the 2010 that is compelling. This is a hugely delicious wine from Lisa Drinkward and Francoise Peschon. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2025.Author: Antonio Galloni

Beginning with the 2000 vintage, Lisa Drinkward and Francoise Peschon, friends and mothers, began creating what was soon to become a major classic in the annals of Napa Valley startups. Both partners came in with excellent credentials - Drinkward, viticulturist at Behrens & Hitchcock (now known as Erna Schein), and Peschon, winemaker at Araujo (she recently transitioned to a consultant position there). Sourcing their fruit from small family-owned vineyards in Calistoga and producing no more than 500 cases, the pair dispels the myth that you need a sophisticated marketing plan and a fancy tasting room to compete in Napa Valley. If anything, their model is emulated more and more. Critics have been following it for a few years and there never seems to be enough to go around.
