2013 Cabernet Sauvignon
Los Carneros
This special selection of estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon was chosen from fruit grown in the shallow soils of our Northern Carneros Vineyard. Winemaker Sal De Ianni, chose this offering from a barrel that came from the original "Old Block" Vineyard planted in 1974. Beautiful structure, soft tannins, and perfect balance characterize this "Old World" style Cabernet Sauvignon.
