2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, Clone 6
From a mere three-acre block on our Valley View Vineyard, this rare Clone 6 Cabernet Sauvignon is renowned for its small, loose clusters that yield exceptional depth of color and concentration. The 2020 vintage reveals alluring aromas of sandalwood, pomegranate, and cardamom, unfolding into layers of blackberry and plum on a supple, medium-weight palate. Polished tannins carry through a long, velvety finish.
A wine of pedigree and limited production, it may be savored now or cellared gracefully through 2030.
