Cabernet Sauvignon

Mountain Estate Vineyard

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.

Wow! This wine evolves in the glass so beautifully - in a word: CAPTIVATING. On first swirl aromas of ripe blackberry along with hints of rosemary, violets and notes of cedar rise from the glass. Over time, these aromas continue to evolve, layering cherry compote, baking spices, light-roasted espresso grinds and notes of unsweetened cocoa. On the palate the wine is opulent and plush; ripe tannins build to a crescendo featuring flavors of dark brambly foraged mountain fruit, accented by a mineral sous bois terroir that is unique to our Mountain Estate. Decant and allow time to experience this wine to its fullest!
