From the coolest site in our vineyard portfolio comes a Cabernet Sauvignon with remarkable elegance and finesse — a consistent favorite year after year. Hand-harvested on October 24th, 2022, the grapes were gently destemmed and crushed, leaving about 10% whole berries for extra lift and complexity. After a cool seven-day soak, native yeasts began fermentation in small one-ton bins, with gentle punchdowns and occasional pump-overs to shape its structure and depth.
Free run, press fractions, and new oak were aged separately before blending, and the wine was bottled in May 2024, unfined and unfiltered, to preserve its pure, graceful character.
