Founded in 1981, Frog's Leap is a leading wine estate based in Rutherford in the Napa Valley, particularly known for its Cabernet Sauvignon.
The winery has been certified organic since 1989 and practices dry farming, which concentrates flavors and creates wines of exceptional balance.
Frog's Leap's philosophy emphasizes wines of balance, restraint and respect for terroir, resulting in Cabernet Sauvignons that are elegant and food-friendly rather than overly extracted or high in alcohol.
The Rutherford AVA is famous for its 'Rutherford Dust' character - a distinctive earthy, dusty quality that comes from the region's alluvial soils.
Frog's Leap exemplifies this character while maintaining exceptional freshness and drinkability.
The 2017 vintage received a score of 95 from Vinous Antonio Galloni, demonstrating the winery's consistent quality.
