Gibbs Cabernet Sauvignon Three Clones Saint Helena Napa Valley
Gibbs Vineyards
United States - California - Napa Valley

Our flagship Cabernet owes its name to the three Cabernet clones grown on our two Estate Vineyards; 6, 15, and 337, that create the core of this delicious wine. Each clone adds unique character, complexity, and depth to the Cabernet Sauvignon. We craft our Three Clones Cabernet with the end goal of presenting a wine that is incredibly balanced; showing well in its youth, but with the ability to age beautifully for years to come.
The 2023 vintage has been called the “vintage of a lifetime” offering winemakers perfectly ripe fruit, the outcome of which is shown in the deep red hue of our flagship Cabernet Sauvignon. Aromas of baking spice and cedar intermingle with notes of blackberry, black tea leaves and dusty French oak. The palate is textured and bursting with plum, juicy dark fruits, cocoa, and dried herbs. Finely etched tannins are present throughout providing structure and extending the generous finish that hints at notes of black currant and dried Mission fig.
