The production of Freemark Abbey began over a quarter of a century ago as a vision shared by a handful of pioneers, those with an intimate knowledge of grapes and a deep respect for the land.
This vision took root, was nurtured by skilled hands, and ultimately resulted in one of the first premium wineries in the Napa Valley. Named for the three businessmen who purchased the winery's site in 1939, Freemark Abbey produces three different Cabernets, although the wine they are best known for is the Cabernet Bosche. With its first vintage dating back to 1970, the Cabernet Bosche stands as one of California's first vineyard-designated wines and is sourced exclusively from the Bosche Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard site in the Rutherford viticultural district of western Napa Valley. This property is renowned for producing wines of distinctive character and excellent quality. Today, the wine of Freemark Abbey stands as a testament to what the rich earth of the Napa Valley is capable of creating when working in perfect harmony with nature. |

Freemark Abbey 1992 Cabernet Bosche Napa Valley 93 Points – Cellar Selection, Wine Spectator (reviewed in 1997)– "Ripe, smooth and harmonious, impeccably balanced, long and tasty, boasting a delicious core of plum and wild berry flavors that gracefully unfold into a lengthy, complex aftertaste." A legendary, limited release wine of Napa Valley, Freemark Abbey’s 1992 Cabernet Bosche has garnered 92 Points from Wine Enthusiast magazine, as well as 92 Points from Wine Authority. Elegant, enticing, and blended with a pinch of Merlot, the Cabernet Bosche is a true rarity and boldly exemplifies the remarkable potential of aging Napa Valley Cabernets. The Cabernet Bosche is bright ruby-garnet in color and hints of black cherry, vanilla, cloves and currants beautifully mingle with aromas of coffee, cigar box, cedar and oak. A veritable potpourri of vanilla, mint and berry linger on the palate while the tannins and oak strike a pleasing balance on the finish. After aging in oak for 24 months, and in the bottle for an awe-inspiring 14 years, the 1992 Cabernet Bosche is drinking at its absolute best right now. 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot. Enjoy!
