Lokoya

Lokoya wurde 1995 gegründet und ist eine Kollektion von vier verschiedenen Cabernet Sauvignons aus den vier ganz grossen und bekanntesten Berglagen im Napa Valley. Diese "Berglagen" überwinden beachtliche Höhenunterschiede zwischen 300 bis 800 Meter über Meer. Diese Berglagen sind immer 100% Cabernet Sauvignon bepflanzt, werden mit einheimischer Hefe fermentiert und ungeschönt und ungefiltert abgefüllt, was zum reinsten Ausdruck der jeweiligen Lagen führt. Es sind kraftvolle Weine, die die intensive Individualität jedes Berges (Lage) widerspiegeln. Der Winzer Chris Carpenter glaubt, dass die Kunst der großen Weinherstellung darin besteht, zu wissen, wann man in den Weinberg und den Keller eingreifen und wann man die Frucht in Ruhe lassen muss, damit sie sich so natürlich wie möglich ausdrücken kann. Die Nutzung der konzentrierten Fruchtaromen, die sich aus so hochgelegenen Standorten mit mageren Böden ergeben, während gleichzeitig die intensiven Tannine dieser kleinen, dickhäutigen Trauben gezähmt werden, erfordert geschickte Techniken und absolute Präzision. Es ist daher absolut nicht verwunderlich, werden die Weine immer wieder von den bekannten Weinkritikern, allen voran Robert Parker, mit bis zu 100 Punkten bewertet.

Lokoya Spring Mountain

Lokoya Spring Mountain

Napa Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon

Robert Parker, Jr., The Wine Advocate, October 2016 “The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain has a dense bluish/purple color to the rim. It comes across as slightly more elegant, with floral notes dominating the wine’s aromatics. Violets and rose petals followed by blueberry and blackberry fruit as well as some crushed rock in a medium to full-bodied, beautifully pure, suave style characterize this wine, which was made form Spring Mountain vineyards such as Yverdon and Wurtele. Drink it over the next 25 years.” “There are several theories as to why Savannah, Georgia was spared at the end of Sherman’s March. One was that it was too beautiful to destroy. With its antebellum architecture, cobblestone streets and heady springtime aromas, it is a city of great beauty and underlying strength—one that reminds us of the 2014 Lokoya Spring Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon, with its floral aromatics, ripe boysenberry fruit character and fine minerality. Like seeing a beautiful Southern belle for the first time, this wine will resonate in your memory for years to come.” — Christopher Carpenter, Winemaker

Lokoya Mount Veeder

Lokoya Mount Veeder

Napa Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon

Chris Carpenter's 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veeder is super-impressive from start to finish. A rich, dark wine, the 2010 saturates the palate with endless layers of huge fruit. Violets, menthol, tar, plums and blueberry jam all flow from this striking wine. Clean veins of piercing, saline Mt. Veeder minerality run through the 2010. Although just bottled, the 2010 is shaping up to be a jewel of wine. Anticipated maturity - R.Parker

Lokoya Howell Mountain

Napa Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon

Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, December 2017 “Very deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain leaps from the glass with vibrant black currant cordial, blueberry and black cherry scents with touches of tree bark, black pepper, rose hip tea and violets. The medium to full-bodied palate has a solid structure of firm, chewy tannins supporting the muscular fruit, finishing with great freshness and plenty of latent depth. Give it another 2–3 years in bottle and drink it over the next 30+.” “Soul music is about heart, it’s about the scent of a loved one, it’s about passion and the strength to sing about it. Lokoya’s soulful 2015 Spring Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon is about perfumed aromatics, black cherry and dragon fruit flavors with the structure to carry it all – such that when you get that feeling, you’ll definitely want Spring Mountain healing.” — Christopher Carpenter, Winemaker

Grossartiges Bouquet, Cassis ohne Ende, Graphit, Blumen- und Kräuternoten, süsser Tabak, Edelhölzer; vollmundig mit einer dichten und unglaublicher Konzentration am Gaumen, samtigen Textur, präsente und feingeschliffene Tannine, wirkt trotz Power und Opulenz sehr geschmeidig und elegant, makellos ausgewogen, zeigt Grösse in der Breite, Tiefe und Länge mit luxuriöser Sensibilität.

Lokoya Howell Mountain

Napa Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon

Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, December 2017 “Very deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain gives up wonderfully expressive crème de cassis, licorice, tar and underbrush notes with hints of charcuterie and bay leaves. Big, rich, full and opulent in the mouth, it has firm, velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing very long with spice nuances coming through.” “The blues’ raw interpretation of the pentatonic scale, with its guitar-driven laments, conveys a sense of depth and texture like no other form of music. The deep, brooding dark fruit, textural components, anise and forest floor tones of Lokoya’s 2015 Howell Mountain, like the blues, will take you to the crossroads with each sip.” — Christopher Carpenter, Winemaker

Lokoya Mount Veeder

Napa Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon

“‘Rock and roll is here to stay, it will never die…’ these are lyrics that convey the attitude and power of their genre. The 2015 Lokoya Mount Veeder could be said to be the rock and roll of the Lokoya lineup. The result of Veeder’s energy, power and longevity, combined with the breadth of blue and dark fruit, Asian spice and notes of cedar, this is a wine that will keep you rockin’ from now until 2050.” — Christopher Carpenter, Winemaker

Lokoya Mount Veeder

Lokoya Mount Veeder

Napa Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon

“Usually my favorite in many vintages, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veeder is the most backward of the 2014s and actually seems to require 4-5 years of bottle age. The wine has the telltale signs of Mt. Veeder – blackberry and blueberry fruit infused with considerable floral nuances. This wine has all that, then hits the palate with a cascade of glycerin, fruit extraction, and layers of blackberry and blueberry fruit. It is full-bodied and opulent, but finishes with some structure and ripe tannin. This is a magnificent wine – full-throttle, extremely pure, and incredibly well-balanced. Give it 5-6 years of bottle age and drink it over the following three decades.” R.Parker
