Palate

Layers of juicy blackberry, spicy nutmeg, toasted coffee and fresh vanilla bean.

Growing Conditions

We source from Paso Robles vineyards located mainly on the eastside of the appellation, they all have one thing in common: Gravely-to-loamy soils with calcareous deposits. This helps with quality consistency and makes for a true “Paso”
flavor profile. The Paso Robles AVA districts we like most are Geneseo, Estrella and Paso Robles Highlands, which is where the bulk of the vineyards are located.

Harvest

The 2021 growing season was very typical through early spring with warm days and cool nights. Early summer through harvest gave us some unexpected heatwaves but plenty of marine breezes and mild weather prevailed. The result was a slight delay of harvest while we waited for acidity, pH and brix to balance creating mature
flavors and good color.

Bottling

November 2022

Winemaking

Our Cabernet Sauvignon is harvested and fermented individually by vineyard lots.

Aging

Wines were matured in oak for an average of 15 months and racked twice during barrel-aging before an initial blend was assembled in mid-September of 2022. Following another 2 months in 15% new French Oak, the blend was finalized
and racked a final time before a gentle cross-flow filtration and bottling.
