Bob Foley began his winemaking career in the Napa Valley in 1977, working at a number of highly regarded wineries including Pride Mountain Vineyards, where he spent 15 years as founding winemaker. During this period he also created the highly acclaimed Switchback Ridge, Hourglass, Paloma, School House, and Engel Family wines. He now focuses on Robert Foley Vineyards and Switchback Ridge wines, but also creates some of the offerings from Dos Lagos Vineyards, Engel Family, and Padis Vineyards in the Napa Valley.

Lastly, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon (100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in 30% new oak) offers a touch more elegance as well as terrific notes of blue fruits, plums, dark chocolate, and violets. Full-bodied, ripe, and polished on the palate, it stays balanced, has solid underlying structure, and a great finish. If you're looking for a rock star Cabernet under $100, this is for you. It will evolve for 15+ years or more.

Blended from Mount Veeder, Howell Mountain and valley floor fruit, Foley's 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon-the current release-features plenty of cassis, some slightly herbal nuances and notes of dark chocolate and mocha. As expected from this producer, it's full-bodied, rich, plush and velvety, with dark fudge-like notes on the finish.
