Nickel and Nickel, a sister winery to the legendary Far Niente, is devoted entirely to 100 percent varietal, single vineyard wines, guided by a simple philosophy of one vineyard, one varietal, one wine, so this bottling is a transparent expression of its Oakville terroir with no blending grapes added. The Branding Iron Vineyard sits in western Oakville, a benchland heart of Napa Valley renowned for powerful, structured Cabernet Sauvignon, and the wine is aged in French oak to build depth and complexity while preserving the vineyard's natural character. It pours a deep, saturated ruby to purple and offers seductive aromas of blackberry, black cherry and plum accented by barrel spice, toasty cedar, licorice and a subtle thread of vanilla cream, with an earthy, herbal undertone that emerges as it breathes. The palate is broad and brooding, with velvet tannins that coat the tongue and a compelling density from the mid palate onward, layering oak spice, dark cherry, licorice and a stone like texture with firm grip, while a tangy red fruit brightness underneath adds tension and keeps it lively. The finish is long and complex. Beautifully balanced, it can be enjoyed on release with decanting, yet it is built to age gracefully with time in the bottle. Serve it in a large Bordeaux glass alongside prime rib, grilled ribeye, lamb or a well seasoned pork tenderloin. This is a structured, richly flavored Oakville Cabernet made to reward both the table and the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eABV \/ Proof\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNickel \u0026amp; Nickel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProducer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNickel \u0026amp; Nickel (Far Niente family), Oakville, CA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCategory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed Wine (Cabernet Sauvignon)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVineyard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBranding Iron Vineyard (single vineyard, western Oakville)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrape\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaturation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrench oak\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14.3%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnited States\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOakville, Napa Valley, California\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep, saturated ruby to purple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blackberry, black cherry and plum with barrel spice, toasty cedar, licorice and vanilla cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Broad and brooding, velvet tannins with oak spice, dark cherry, licorice and a stone like texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and complex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Nickel \u0026amp; Nickel Branding Iron Vineyard Cabernet?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is a 100 percent varietal, single vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the Branding Iron Vineyard in western Oakville, made by Nickel \u0026amp; Nickel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the alcohol content?\u003c\/strong\u003e This bottle is labeled at 14.3 percent alcohol by volume.
