Beyond the label

“Jean-Charles Boisset seems to be pulling out all the stops to create something very special with these wines.”

That’s serious praise from top critic Robert Parker for Jean-Charles, the dynamic owner of Raymond Vineyards, “one of the iconic wineries of Napa” (Parker again). Raymond has also held Wine Enthusiast’s American Winery of the Year title. Well-deserved praise—and just the tip of the accolades iceberg for this impressive outfit.

Their gorgeous, ripe-fruited Initial Cabernet Sauvignon has its own impressive history of acclaim (a previous vintage scooped a silver medal at the San Francisco International Wine Competition). And it’ll only take an initial sip of the new 2021 release to demonstrate how they’ve managed to capture all the kudos…

Head winemaker Stephanie Putnam, below, former star at Far Niente (the famous Napa estate whose Cabs fetch hundreds of dollars a bottle), crafted Initial with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from some of the Golden State’s best vineyards. Look forward to ripe black currant, cherry and plum notes, supported by hints of dark chocolate and toasty spice. With its fine tannins and oh-so-smooth texture, it will make for an amazing dinnertime centerpiece. Pair with juicy filet, hearty stews and much more.

Fun fact: the bee on the label serves as a reminder to stop and enjoy the nectar of life. Order your share of this exclusive Cabernet today and savor how luxurious California Cab can be.
