WINEMAKER NOTES
"This Cabernet Sauvignon offers intense black fruit, roasted espresso bean flavors, vanilla and fine Oakville herbs framed by fresh tannins that cover the palate. The wine is painstakingly made in open-top barrel fermenters and aged in 100% new French Oak for 26 months to provide an elegant, silky texture. To Kalon Vineyard is a site generally regarded for legendary Cabernet Sauvignon wines. Some of the finest expressions of this varietal are made from this vineyard and our unique farm-to-farmer relationship allows us to make a wine from this coveted vineyard. Cellared correctly, this wine could age for 20 years or more. Just 6 barrels produced." – Kirk Venge
