98+ Points, Robert Parker Wine Advocate
95 Points, Wine Spectator The 2018 3D Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the premium Dr. Crane fruit we have the privilege of growing and making into wine. The barrels going into the blend are hand selected by our winemakers three different times. Velvety and sultry, this wine sings with bright notes of raspberry, dried rose petal, olive, and vanilla. The mouthfeel is seamless, elegant and bold. Refined chalky textured tannins give way to hints of cigar box and nutmeg on the finish.
An adored varietal of Co-Owner, Shannon Salvestrin, and our Winemaker & Viticulturist, Natalie Winkler, Pinot Noir was introduced to the Salvestrin Portfolio with the Inaugural 2019 Vintage. Our 2020 Russian River Pinot Noir is a vibrant, medium to light bodied wine with ruby red hue. Featuring notes of raspberry, and cherry, this wine presents earthy characteristics with a hint of baking spice. A well-balanced structure commingles with a delicate and silky mouthfeel showcasing incredible finesse through the lasting finish.
This super Tuscan style blend includes Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet and Cabernet Franc. Aged leather, blackberry, violets and green olive emerge on the nose. Robust yet plush, this medium plus bodied red wine has polished chalky tannins and a tight focused finish.
Who says you can't enjoy red wine in the Summer? Our 2020 Sangiovese and 2020 Retaggio, Red Blend are the perfect Summertime Sippers for any gathering! This set, complete with a 2021 Sauvignon Blanc will please all the wine lovers on your guest list!
The 2021 Sauvignon Blanc opens with white peach, pineapple rind, fresh cut grass, and a whisper of gooseberry. Acid driven with a remarkable freshness, this wine is nervy with brilliant tension and persistent through the finish. The back palate features hints of grapefruit and granny smith apple.
Very few wineries make a pure Sangiovese in Napa Valley. This wine features cranberry, raspberry and freshly cut redwood on the nose. Medium bodied and juicy, this Sangiovese has a textured velvety quality that comes across as subtle yet serious. Pencil shavings and red cherry aromas accompany the long finish.
Our flagship Cabernet opens with notes of black cherry, dried tobacco, pencil shavings, and thyme. Medium plus in weight, the core is velvety in texture and framed by powdery refined tannins. Dried sage and blood orange shine through on the finish, which has notable persistence. Driven by finesse with a hint of minerality, this expression of the Dr. Crane Vineyard site is unadulterated, unfined, and unfiltered.
Emma's Olive Oil is back! A joint venture with her lifelong friend, Payton Rockwood. "After years of watching and learning from our family businesses, we sought to make something of our own. The result? An aromatic, delicious olive oil derived from organic Arbequina Olives."
