Description

Recently imported from a specialist professional storage facility in Napa, California, in perfect condition. This is the ultra rare second wine from Sloan, the 2007 Asterisk. This vintage was under the direction of the famed winemaker Martha McClellan (Checkerboard, Levy & McClellan, Toymaker, and formerly Harlan Estate).

Wine searcher average price £175 before import fees, with only 3 bottles available globally.
2007 was an exceptional year with Wine Spectator giving the vintage a 97 points. "Textbook year; small crop, ideal ripening, wines defined by complexity and plush tannins".


Background:

In 1997, Stuart Sloan purchased 40 acres of land in the eastern portion of the Rutherford appellation, which gave him a nice view of Auberge du Soleil, which was just a bit below his property.

With that parcel of land, Sloan Estate Winery was founded in 1997 with the goal of making of the great Cabernet Sauvignon wines in all of Napa Valley. Stuart Sloan quickly put together an all-star team to help accomplish his goal. He hired David Abreu to plant 13 acres with vines. Mark Aubert was the first winemaker to work with Sloan. He was replaced in 2004 by Martha McClellan. Brad Grimes, who is the winemaker for Abreu was hired to assist as well. Michel Rolland, the globe trotting consultant joined the team soon after that. Sloan Estate Winery released its first vintage in 2000.

The vineyards of Sloan Estate Winery are on great terroir within site of Auberge du Soleil on the hillsides of Rutherford. The vineyard has good elevations that range from 875 feet to almost 1,000 feet above the Rutherford Bench. The terroir is mostly, rocks, stone, volcanic material, clay and white tufa soils on a cool, hillside parcel.

Asterisk is made from a blend of the finest Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, making its debut in 2004.


Will be packaged carefully and sent special delivery, in time for Christmas. Thank you.
