Discover a Hidden Gem in Coombsville

12 bottles of Napa Valley wine, as noted
2 etched Riedel decanters
Lunch for 4

Now that you've tasted wines from St. Helena, Rutherford and Oakville, why not explore a different side of Napa Valley? You'll discover the simple pleasures of the valley's newest AVA—Coombsville--when you visit Ackerman Family Vineyards. You won't find a big tasting room at Ackerman. But you will find a charming carriage house above the barn where horses live. Take a short stroll uphill and experience sweeping views of the Vacas Range, then linger at a picnic table under a withered oak tree to take in the vineyard's tranquil beauty.

And sip some exceptional wines--wines that reflect the truth of Coombsville: deep mineralities, silky flavors, hints of spice, complex tannins yet soft layers of bright fruit-truly elegant Bordeaux-style wines you can enjoy today or for years to come. Ackerman Family Vineyards produces only 500 cases a year of its single-vineyard, estate-grown 100% Cabernet Sauvignon carried by some of the finest restaurants in the country. Chefs appreciate the unique complexities and deep berry flavors these wines consistently display.

This lot includes the following:

• A six-magnum vertical of Ackerman Family Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon from the first commercial 2003 vintage through the current release of the 2008. One vertical for each couple (total of two six-magnum verticals)


• A beautiful Riedel magnum decanter etched in gold with the AFV logo - one per couple (total of two)


• A gourmet lunch and tasting of three vintages of Ackerman Family Vineyard wines for two couples either in the carriage house or at a vineyard picnic table, weather permitting.
