Founder of Orin Swift Dave Phinney, a Napa wine legend was named Winemaker of the Year by Wine Enthusiast. Every wine in the portfolio from vineyard source to distinct artwork adorning the label, offers a unique point of view while creating a heart-skipping impression. Robert Parker admires his his wines for their considerable character and complexity. He’s as known for his innovative packaging as he is for wine quality and personality. He believes that wine should resemble a piece of great art, and his labels, inspired as much by street art as fine art, tell stories about the vineyard, the vintage, the winemaker.
WINEMAKER’S NOTES：The wine sits in the glass with a dark mauve and crimson red rim. Classic and traditional Left Bank Bordeaux nose of ripe cassis, blackberry and assorted blue fruits with a touch of chapparal. The entry is robust with notes of blackberry pie, black cherry, and impressive weight. Soft tannins and a bright finish round out the wine with a lingering touch of orange peel.

2020年對納帕谷嘅每個人來說都係一個具有挑戰性嘅年份。由於影響收成嘅眾多因素，果實質素各不相同。然而，每批酒都經過細緻嘅品嚐同分析，確保最終裝瓶嘅葡萄酒冇任何瑕疵。入門級Palermo系該地區同品種嘅最典型代表。這款Palermo得益於納帕谷嘅各種微型區域氣候，如盧瑟福、聖赫勒拿等。
Palermo Cabernet Sauvignon嘅葡萄來自於Rutherford等產區，系成個Napa Valley葡萄園拼湊融合而成嘅寫照，也系“Napa葡萄酒嘅最佳代言”。樽身系一張令人瞠目結脷嘅木乃伊祭司嘅照片，為 《國家地理雜誌》 拍攝嘅一系列照片之一，反映了釀酒人Pinney對Cabernet Sauvignon嘅崇敬。 “呢張照片具有力量和尊嚴，呢就係我哋對優質嘅Cabernet Sauvignon葡萄嘅睇法。我哋就係真嘅尊重佢。
