Following more than four decades planting vineyards and adapting farming practices to the mountain climate and terrain around the winery, we launched our Mountain Estate Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon. The core of this wine is Cabernet Sauvignon grown on steep, west facing terraces that rise above the winery, reaching a towering elevation of 1,400 feet. Other contiguous vineyard blocks yielding fruit of mature character and balance incorporate a great diversity of soils and exposures, providing additional complexity and unmistakable mountain terroir.

Aromas of ripe blackberry, dark cherry fruit, milk chocolate and clove. The concentrated, focused mid-palate boasts flavors of blueberry, plum, molasses and wild sage. Present tannins mark this wine's mountain heritage adding firm structure and layers on the palate that mingle with flavors of dark chocolate and roasted coffee. This wine delivers tremendous density with ripe lush texture, a hallmark of the heralded 07 vintage.
