This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the concentrated depth of flavor and smoothness that 38-year-old vines can produce.
Our vineyard has a classic varietal expression of Cabernet Sauvignon that makes a very elegant wine. This older block, planted almost 40 years ago, produces lower yields with more concentrated flavors each year. I used fermentation techniques and barrel programs to help integrate it into a smooth, balanced wine. Winemaker: Aimée Sunseri, Nichelini 5th generation
