Tasting Notes

Aroma

The Cabernet Sauvignon opens with violet and ripe blueberry then deepens into a killer midpalate.

Maturation

After barrel aging for 22 months, the wine was bottled without fining or filtration.

Palate

Minerality and touches of graphite and herbs bring strength and complexity to this beauty.

Vintage Notes

The 2021 vintage started with just a little rain in winter and spring, followed by a moderate summer and cooler fall. The absence of heat spikes and moisture as the clusters finished ripening meant we could pick exactly when we felt the fruit was at its peak. This gentle growing season yielded vivid, fresh character.

Winemakers Comments

Mt. Brave Vineyard sits high atop Mt. Veeder at an elevation of 1,400 to 1,800 feet. Mt. Veeder has been planted with winegrapes since the early 1860s by winemaking pioneers such as Charles Krug, Agoston Haraszthy, Frederick Hess and William S. Keyes. Wines from Mt. Veeder achieved recognition as early as the Paris Exposition of 1900. The parcel that became the Mt. Brave Vineyard, in the northern reaches of the Mt. Veeder American Viticultural Area, was originally purchased in 1841 before the Gold Rush and the Civil War.
