Inspired by one of A.J. Foyt’s favorite racing memories, this 2024 Calistoga Cabernet Sauvignon honors his remarkable performance at the Milwaukee Mile in 1965. After winning on dirt at Springfield the day before, Foyt arrived in Milwaukee only to discover his rear-engine car was sidelined by mechanical issues. Undeterred, he climbed into his upright dirt-track car, stunned the field by winning the pole position, and proved once again that determination and talent could overcome any obstacle. Like that unforgettable performance, this Cabernet is bold, confident, and built to stand apart.
Tasting notes
Rich plum and ripe blueberry unfold across the palate, layered with warm gingersnap spice and dark chocolate. Concentrated dark fruit is framed by polished tannins and balanced acidity, leading to a long, luxurious finish with remarkable depth and finesse.
