Proficio is the flagship wine of Antinori Napa Valley. A blend of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon and 31% Cabernet Franc, this wine is an expression of our steepest and rockiest southwest-facing parcels at an elevation of 1600-1800 feet. The wine shows brooding dark fruit married with a firm, but fine-textured tannin structure and fresh acidity provided by our high-elevation mountain site. This wine will reward patient cellaring for many years to come.
Townsend represents the origins of the Antinori Napa Valley Estate, as the first Cabernet Sauvignon produced on the property. Composed of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc, Townsend represents a blend of five top terroirs within our mountain estate, ranging from 1400-1800 feet in elevation. Townsend balances generous fruit and fine-textured tannins with freshness and lift, emphasizing structure and elegance.
Our Cabernet Franc highlights the sensual and perfumed aromatics, robust tannin structure, and supple intensity inherent in an excellent Cabernet Franc from mountain origins. It is an introspective wine, exhibiting an intensity of flavor without being overwrought.
