Total production each vintage is limited and noted American critic Robert Parker has regularly dished out 100-point scores for the wines. Both of these factors have cemented Lokoya's cult status and have led to some very high prices. Lokoya produces four varietal Cabernet Sauvignon wines, sourced from distinct hillside sites on Howell Mountain, Mount Veeder, Spring Mountain and Diamond Mountain. Each of the four is vinified in the same way with the intention being to showcase the terroir of each site. The wines are fermented with native yeasts and are aged in French oak for 18-22 months prior to being bottled unfined and unfiltered. The Mount Veeder property sits at 1800 feet (550 meters) above sea level and has distinct volcanic soils, which contribute a strong mineral character in the wine. The Howell Mountain property at 1900ft (580m) above sea level has a mix of sandstone, red clay, and conifer biomatter soils. It creates a dense wine with a dark fruit and a herbaceous profile. Across the valley, the Spring Mountain property sits at 1600ft (490m) above sea level with sedimentary soils. The wines from this property tend to have a more floral quality. Finally, Diamond Mountain in the northern part of Napa Valley ranges in altitude from 1000-1800ft (300-550m), with a mix of volcanic and loam soils. The tannins found in this wine tend to be softer than some of Lokoya's other offerings. The winery was founded in 1995 by Jess Jackson of Jackson Family Wineries, and is named for the Native American tribe that inhabited what is now Mount Veeder in the Mayacamas Mountain range on the western side of Napa Valley.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-27T13:52:03-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-23T20:02:56-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","NK230324","Other_Wine","Producer_Lokoya","Region_Napa Valley","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","varietal_cabernet sauvignon"],"price":285295,"price_min":285295,"price_max":285295,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44527438332042,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2003 | Lokoya | Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon (Double Magnum)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":285295,"weight":21772,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/13_0c189a8e-5d04-49d2-954f-9f1f13c99b3c.webp?v=1711238686"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/13_0c189a8e-5d04-49d2-954f-9f1f13c99b3c.webp?v=1711238686","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2003 | Lokoya | Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon (Double Magnum) at CaskCartel.com","id":26544494706826,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.75,"height":1365,"width":1024,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/13_0c189a8e-5d04-49d2-954f-9f1f13c99b3c.webp?v=1711238686"},"aspect_ratio":0.75,"height":1365,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/13_0c189a8e-5d04-49d2-954f-9f1f13c99b3c.webp?v=1711238686","width":1024}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2003 | Lokoya | Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon (Double Magnum)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood medium ruby.
