Vintage Notes

The 2021 Vintage had wonderful warm and mild weather during flowering and bloom leading to above average yields and good fruit cluster uniformity. This is our third vintage of producing a Cabernet Sauvignon wine. This particular wine hails from Carmel Valley old vines grown at Joullian Vineyard deep in the rugged Cachauga Mountains. This Cabernet expresses the varietal beautifully in a ripe yet balanced structure that showcases the depth of the microclimate with dusty mineral red and dark fruits and plenty of earth and acidity.
