The site primarily grows Cabernet Sauvignon as well as small portions of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec, all used for blending with the Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as a small portion of Sauvignon Blanc.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WINES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Acumen bottles four PEAK wines, which are meant to be the best expression of the vineyard. The <strong>PEAK Sauvignon Blanc 2014<\/strong> includes a deftly used portion of oak to bring greater complexity and age worthiness to an elegant wine. Flavors include a mix of citrus including grapefruit, tangerine and sweet lime, alongside fresh mineral and herbal accents. The <strong>PEAK Cabernet Sauvignon 2013<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/en\/31664\/\"><strong>(GREAT WINE)<\/strong><\/a> from the site is made in three wines, one for each of the two sub-vineyards of the estate, and one that represents the best barrel selection for the vintage. The <strong>PEAK Attelas Cabernet Sauvignon 2013<\/strong> offers the best expression of the Attelas vineyard. It carries lifted, floral notes with a mix of red fruits and fine-grained structure with balancing acidity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>TASTING ROOM<\/strong> Walk-ins welcome, reservations encouraged.<br \/>\n<strong>MAILING LIST<\/strong> Currently open.<br \/>\n<strong>SALES<\/strong> Website and national distribution.<br \/>\n<strong>WINERY TOURS<\/strong> n\/a.<br \/>\n<strong>PRIVATE EVENTS<\/strong> n\/a.<br \/>\n<strong>SOCIAL MEDIA <\/strong>Instagram @AcumenWine, Twitter @AcumenWine, Facebook.com\/AcumenWine<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/assets\/2017\/12\/IMG_3936.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-32385 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/assets\/2017\/12\/IMG_3936-1024x768.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/assets\/2017\/12\/IMG_3936-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/assets\/2017\/12\/IMG_3936-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/assets\/2017\/12\/IMG_3936-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/assets\/2017\/12\/IMG_3936-728x546.jpg 728w, https:\/\/www.slowfood.it\/slowine\/assets\/2017\/12\/IMG_3936-800x600.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 &nbsp; ACUMEN (BOTTLE) 1315 1st St. Napa CA 94559 (707) 492-8336 acumenwine.com PEOPLE Garrett Buckland serves as viticulturist for Acumen vineyards.
