Arrow & Branch Coronet Estate Cabernet 2023

Cabernet; Napa

Arrow & Branch Wines was founded by Steve and Seanne Contursi, who have been avid Bordeaux wine collectors since the 1980s. He made his fortune rare coins and today has the largest inventory of US rare coins in the world and hence the name Arrow & Branch. I tasted the wines last week and we are talking pinnacle Cult Napa. Napa in all its glory, top of the Cabernet pyramid.

First winemaker was the great Helen Keplinger and now Jennifer Williams has taken over. Jennifer has achieved her own pedestal, she has worked with and learned from the best: Francoise Peschon winemaker at Araujo and VHR, Rosemary Cakebread and vineyard guru David Abreau. Williams was Spottswoode’s Winemaker from 2006 to 2011. Coronet is a new Napa Cabernet crafted by the esteemed team at Arrow & Branch Winery. The backbone of the wine is Arrow & Branch’s Lady Liberty Vineyard. This five-acre vineyard on Oak Knoll is ideal for making world class Cabernet. We have been able to get a drop dead price on the wine.
