Description
With our inaugural participation in PNV, Roy Estate and winemaker Philippe Melka are pleased to present "Voix Basse"...translation, whisper. We say whisper as a metaphor because Philippe believes this vineyard has two "voices" resulting in two styles of wine. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is a pure expression of clone 337 from Block 6C, unlike our regular releases of Cabernet Sauvignon and Proprietary Red, which are blends created from estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
The Wappo Indians once lived on a rock ledge overlooking this Soda Canyon property. They chose this site due to the hospitable nature of the land. Today, Shirley & Charles Roy are privileged to be its caretakers.
