2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, Olive Hill Estate, Sonoma Valley
This Cabernet exemplifies our commitment to sustainable farming, originating from a harmonious blend of our finest hillside vineyard parcels within the Olive Hill Estate. It showcases the robust, masculine character of Cabernet Sauvignon, offering abundant layers of black fruits, cassis, and the aromatic embrace of espresso, coupled with profound earthy nuances reminiscent of a forest floor and wild briar.
The wine's alluring aroma unfolds with notes of cigar box, cloves, and cedar, gracefully adorned with subtle whispers of mocha and anise, leading to a palate graced by the warmth of caramel, framed by intricate yet structured tannins, and culminating in a lingering, enduring finish.

Winemaker Notes
The process of crafting exceptional wine begins by carefully selecting vineyards, considering not only ripeness but also the crucial moment when flavors have reached their peak development. Throughout the harvest, we maintain a vigilant watch over fermentation temperatures and monitor the progress of our yeasts, aiming to achieve the perfect timing and temperature for optimal flavor development and extraction. Following the completion of fermentation, our wine undergoes a period of aging in carefully chosen French oak barrels, enhancing it with the infusion of character and complexity.
Food Pairing Notes
Fantastic paired with grilled rib-eye with a black peppercorn and sage rub, tandoori lamb and spiced mango chutney, mesquite grilled pork chop, or Italian sausage lasagna with mozzarella and aged Parmesan. Also a great wine with an aged cheddar or Gouda.
