This is a gorgeous set of wines from Rosemary Cakebread. Sadly, there isn't a whole lot to go around. Cakebread makes essentially two lines; the Suzuri wines take their inspiration from Rhone varieties, while the Cabernet is pure Napa Valley. The Gallica Cabernet Sauvignon is made mostly from vineyards in St. Helena, although in recent years Cakebread has begun to use more fruit from Oakville Ranch, the Cabernet Franc in particular. Stylistically, the Gallica wines are built on fruit and textural polish.

This is an impressive set of new and upcoming releases from Gallica and proprietor Rosemary Cakebread, who is now focused exclusively on her own project after having spent 20+ years at Spottswoode. These are all low production wines, but they are well worth the effort of seeking out. A deeply thoughtful and inquisitive winemaker, Rosemary Cakebread is clearly set to achieve great things with Gallica.
