Year in and year out the very best Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the block of our Oak Knoll District estate vineyard surrounding the winery. The block is planted on an ancient riverbed so the soils are more gravelly and well drained, which results in very deep, rich fruit flavors. The entire vineyard produces truly outstanding wine, but we like to show off this particular block by bottling a portion separately as our Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2017 vintage reserve blend was barrel fermented and aged in 90% new French oak for 2.5 years prior to bottling.
