Expressive aromas of blackberries, black cherries, and blueberries supported by more complex layers of clove, tea, and vanilla, beautifully reflecting the typical character of Rutherford. The wine has a long, full, and elegantly structured finish with remarkable depth and persistence.

This exceptional Cabernet deserves a piece of meat of the highest quality. Aged sirloin or a fine piece of Wagyu pair perfectly with its noble and exceptional character.

climate

Moderately warm climate with warm, dry summers and mild winters with sufficient rainfall. In the afternoon, the vineyards are cooled by a refreshing sea breeze.

soil

The Benchlands were formed by alluvial deposits from the Mayacamas Mountains. This well-drained soil consists of gravel, sand, and loam and promotes deep rooting of the grapevine.

vinification

95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot. Manual harvest with strict selection. Classic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Subsequently, the wine ages for a further 17 months in a blend of oak barrels, 40% of which are new.
