About This Wine
Gilded Letter
Cabernet Sauvignon
This exceptional wine is part of our Fine Wine Collection.
Winemaking Some Sonoma County winemakers refer to 2020 as “the vintage of the decade.” This is because, like us, they know extreme conditions create exceptionally concentrated grapes, which translate to powerful wines. From meticulous sorting to closely monitored fermentation and generous oak influence, we harnessed every opportunity to extract the power and flavor from this legendary year—a victory evident in each sip.
Vintage A true diamond in the rough, our 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon is a shining example of riches born from struggle. Extreme weather led to a challenging year in Sonoma County, with drought, high temperatures, and wildfires reducing the region’s yields by 30 percent. Though we harvested in. lower quantities, the quality was high. The wines made from these small, concentrated, flavorful grapes reinforce the message that even in the most turbulent times, there is beauty to be found.
