Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Composed of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon and 11% Cabernet Franc, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Oliver Ranch Vineyard is deep garnet-purple colored and a little reticent to begin, opening to reveal notions of wild blueberries, cassis and warm black plums plus hints of spice cake, cigar box and underbrush. The palate is full-bodied with beautiful balance at this youthful stage, featuring a plush frame of finely grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and layered.

• James Suckling: Intense yet elegant, with distinctive mocha and chocolate flavors amid a core of dark berry and black licorice. Oak provides a toasty edge that adds dimension and length. Very impressive. Drink now through 2028.

Producer Information

Never mind the six million album covers around the world that feature Andy Katz’s photographs, or his dozen books of gorgeous photos that grace countless coffee tables around the country, or the many awards on his mantel earned from five decades of work around the world. It was all an excuse. An excuse to drink world class wine. To learn what it takes to make world class wine. And to spend time with his young son Jesse. Andy brought Jesse to the the most famous vineyards on earth, from the heart of Burgundy to the hills of Tuscany. He may not have admitted it at the time, but Andy’s gambit worked. Barely a decade later, Jesse is now one of the most exciting — and accomplished — winemakers in the world, recently gracing the cover of Wine Enthusiast as a rising young star who is doing nothing less than “changing the way the world drinks.” The son of a man who, through his photographs, changes the way the world sees wine. It’s a perfect combination. Jesse supplies the grapes, Andy supplies the images. And together they make wines worthy of their travels. Aperture. World class wines. Katz and Katz. A world class pairing.
