Winemakers' Notes: "An assembly from our leased vineyards across Sonoma County made from vines aging from 20-70 years old. Super classic, old-school CA Cabernet Sauvignon with taught blue fruit and savory herbs." - Shaunt & Diego
Farming: Les Lunes farms all of the sites that go into this wine. Strictly organic and practicing regenerative farming, Shaunt and Diego focus on soil health, good pruning, and minimal inputs to allow the sites to truly express themselves to their full potential.
- Stone Barn & Locke Vineyards: Located just outside the city of Sonoma on the Huichica soil series, these deep, loamy soils paired with the cool climate lend to beautiful blue fruit and freshness.
- Marcheschi Vineyard: 60-year-old dry farmed Cabernet Sauvignon in Alexander Valley on stony, alluvial soils give an aspect of depth and power to the wine.
- Pyaleh Vineyard: Merlot from the heavy clay Carneros soils gives weight and balance to the midpalate.
Tasting Notes: A classic California Cabernet, there is a firm tannic structure that is balanced by luscious blue/dark fruit on the palate and plenty of dried herbs, olives, and cassis on the nose. Delightful with its primary fruit, the wine does exceptionally well with grilled/roasted meats and veggies.
