TASTING NOTES
This Cabernet Sauvignon is a fresher style than other representations of the grape. We harvest the grapes at lower brix compared to neighboring Napa Valley to help highlight the style we prefer and keep it fairly simple in the cellar. This vintage is Cabernet Sauvignon from Wirth Vineyard in Solano County Green Valley with a little Cabernet from Masas Vineyard in Carmel Valley. The combination provides a delicious balance of dark fruits and soft tannins. Most of the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were destemmed with the remaining grapes left whole cluster. We fermented with native yeast and pressed early to lessen the amount of tannins in the wine.
For Chris Brockway, the ‘Perfect Red’ means, “Something that’s easy to drink but has enough complexity to elevate the wine…is affordable and ‘perfect’ for what it is and how it’s priced.
