2018 Cabernet Sauvignon
Howell Mountain
The historic land on which ADAMVS now grows Cabernet Sauvignon lends power, finesse, complexity and intrigue that can be attributed to no other site. Through an obsessive attention to detail in our farming and winemaking, wines of rare precision and focus are achieved. This unique wine is the ultimate expression of our land and of our commitment to crafting world class, age-worthy wines.
Winemaker, ADAMVS
Having grown up in her family's winery, Sarah always knew she would dedicate her career to winemaking. She attained a B.S. in Enology at Fresno State before embarking on a gruelling cycle of internships in order to hone her craft. Sarah then went on to spend six years at Colgin Cellars, rising from intern to Assistant Winemaker. Thereafter she joined Bart and Daphne Araujo as Winemaker and Production Manager for their Wheeler Farms project.
Sarah and her winemaker husband live on Howell Mountain with their two young daughters. The call of ADAMVS and its unique mountain property felt like something predestined.
"Living four minutes away just gives me more time to be in these vineyard rows getting to know the character and personality of this special site more deeply with every day that passes,"
