Wine of this caliber and price point rarely share the same conversation. Our 2009 vintage is no exception. Harvested in the early fall we crushed, fermented and aged this wine in 60 gallon French and American oak barrels.

We try to retain as much fruit as possible, with minimal racking or handling. This balanced wine offers a symbiotic and appealing style with berries, chocolate and vanilla-wood flavors.

We feel that the style of our cabernet is nicely layered with plenty of forward fruit, a medium body and moderate tannins.

Certainly worthy of cellaring but very enjoyable now.
