Our passion for single vineyard wines and a desire to understand the place that has given the fruit compel us to use red winemaking practices that include hand sort, stainless steel fermentation, and extended maceration. In this wine, these processes combine to create a Cabernet Sauvignon that is approachable and mildy fruit forward. Consider pairing with cardamom and chocolate.
