Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
$58.00 / 750 ml
Dark ruby to deep purple and opaque throughout, our Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a powerful bouquet of black fruit, wild bramble and wet tobacco, with classic undertones of wet stone and graphite. The palate is dense and layered, led by flavors of blackberry compote and blueberry pie, but still maintains a strong earthy element of forest floor, black pepper and crushed gravel. Aged in 35% new French oak, this wine gains complexity with notes of vanilla, leather, and dark cocoa. Despite its richness, the youthful tannins point you to the long aging potential ahead. If enjoyed in the near-term, we recommend decanting and pairing with a rich, textured dish - something fatty enough to help tame the tannic grip. This is a classically styled Cabernet, structured and built to evolve gracefully over time.

Winemaker Notes
After harvest, the grapes are carefully sorted and gently crushed before beginning fermentation. An extended maceration of 18–24 days allows for full extraction of color, concentration, and firm, age-worthy tannins. The wine is then matured in 35% new French oak and 65% seasoned barrels. This balanced oak program provides structure and subtle spice from the new wood, while the older barrels encourage graceful integration and refinement.
