Nose of lavender and Sicilian cherry, with a soft hint of cedar and leather. Tannins are still fresh and grab at the front of the mouth, slowly relaxing through the mid palate and leading to a cherry and plum finish. Still big and tight, this wine can be laid down for a few more years, and will be excellent when the front tannin softens a bit more. Highly recommended to pair with food now, and should complement a dinner of Osso Buco or lasagna al forno nicely.
The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is big, opulent, and bold. Highly concentrated raspberry and cherry aromatics evolve into rose pedal while it sits in the glass. The wine is a heavyweight across the palate, both soft and supple but with tannin that draw the cheeks inward. Leaning towards velvet, the wine continues into a finish that leaves you wanting more. Drink now as a young and vivacious wine, or hold for another 5 years to see a more matured and layered wine

When 1 will not do... Our first multi-year blend of Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is an example of declassified estate fruit blended from three vintages into a brilliant expressive and engaging wine.

Made mostly from the saignee of all our grapes on the vineyard and a little Merlot that went straight to the press, this bright pink rose is a fantastic pairing for warm days in the sun. A nose of ripe raspberry and carnations, the wine strikes a perfect balance between acidity and roundness, being both refreshing and having a depth of flavor.
