Vineyard Notes: Weathered, high elevation mountain vineyards provide intensity of color, higher acidity levels, and spiciness from the surrounding forests. The lower elevation blocks of Calistoga, with rocky soils and more extreme heat summation, provide a lush midpalate and fine tannins.

Winemaking Notes: 10-day fermentation in stainless; aged 22 months in French oak barrels (35% new)

Tasting Notes : Aromas of blackberry and black cherry display pure ripeness. Rich on the palate, ripe flavors follow through with even and gently gripping tannin. A delightful mouth-coating Cabernet nicely balanced with natural acidity.

    The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is also incredibly perfumed, with lots of blue fruits, violets, and spring flower notes to go with a medium to full-bodied style on the palate. It brings this terrific mix of richness and elegance.
