ADAMVS is an 80 acre estate (28 planted) on Napa Valley's legendary Howell Mountain terroir. This is prime Cabernet Sauvignon territory.
Incorporating the abundant diversity of their estate, TÉRES gracefully combines Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from every block of the estate, plus a bit from Oakville and Rutherford resulting in a unique 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that exhibits purity and refinement. Structurally the wine's characteristics are reminiscent of a classic Bordeaux which is no coincidence given that the Owners, Denise and Stephen Adams own two right bank properties and that the winemaker, Philippe Melka, had stints at Chateau Haut-Brion and Chateau Petrus. While it's rooted in a classic mentality it is complex with deep dark fruit flavors, rich textures that retains freshness and even a streak of minerality!
Wine Advocate: 95 Points
Blended of the Estate fruit (Howell Mountain), Oakville and Rutherford, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Teres sports a deep garnet-purple color and an intense nose of crushed blackcurrants, black berries and garrigue with hints of bouquet garni, tilled soil, iron ore and moss-covered bark. Medium to full-bodied, the savory/earthy muscular fruit is firmly structured with grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a minerally note. (LPB)
