An exciting revival of a classic style. It has the best characteristics of traditional California and old world Bordeaux. Raise your glass Our sourcing takes us to the most breathtaking vineyard sites in California in pursuit of richly textured, juicy parcels of fruit for our flagship Cabernet. Combing Sonoma County, roaming Mendocino and Lake County, cruising south to San Benito, Monterey and the Central Coast - we seek distinctive Cabernet lots to layer into this blend. This diversity creates a richly textured, elegantly nuanced, berry-drenched wine. Winemaking With each region maturing at different times we enjoy optimizing the individual parcels to bring layers to the final blend. Traditional fermentation techniques with twice daily pump-overs are typical cellar treatments for our wines. French Oak aging begins shortly after vintage at the earliest stages of the new wines, and blending takes place in multiple stages over the 18 months following harvest to integrate and harmonize the components prior to bottling.
