About the wine
Decadent, velvety single-vineyard Napa Cabernet from coveted Diamond Mountain
- Rudy’s single-vineyard Diamond Mountain Cab is the definition of deliciousness, with elegant, intense berry flavors like dark, ripe raspberry and cherry mingling perfectly with light vanilla and an oh-so-smooth texture from several years of barrel aging.
- At just 3 acres, Vineyard 2131 is one of the smallest vineyards in one of Napa’s smallest subregions, where the grapes are packed with hugely concentrated flavors that burst out in the finished wine. There are Napa Cabs – and then there are Diamond Mountain District Cabs!
- Rudy’s been making world-class Cab on Diamond Mountain for more than 30 years, and his 2015 vintage is one for the books! Get yours while it lasts!
Best before
The longer you can age it the better. However, the best time to drink a wine is with good food and great friends. So keep this one for a special occasion, and don't worry if you forget about it for a half dozen years or more.
Serving advice
I am not a fan of letting wines breathe. They do change after opening, but I prefer to experience that change in my glass and not in a carafe. This wine will have slight sediment, but not enough, in my opinion, to warrant decanting.
Food match
This is a very versatile wine due to its softer tannins and depth of character, and will go with a great variety of foods, from vegetarian to BBQ steak. Be creative: find a new recipe, open it while cooking, and enjoy the evening.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Rudy von Strasser
Rudy von Strasser is a Napa legend — he played a huge part in founding the Diamond Mountain District, famous for its Cabernet. By rallying everyone in the region, he put the AVA (American Viticultural Area) on the map in 1999!
Rudy met Naked through Alex Farber — he was looking to expand his portfolio with some beautiful Petite Sirah, but didn’t have enough room in his winery.
Angel funding helped make that Petite Sirah possible. When he brought us his other wines, we knew we’d hit the jackpot! Rudy’s now able to share his wide range of Diamond Mountain District wines with Angels across the country.
