This wine is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
made entirely from Estate Grown grapes. It was
handpicked from the hillside portion of the vineyard with
limestone shale rock soils. Yields were limited to produce an
intensely dark-hued wine. As is typical from this
vineyard, the wines maintain complexity while remaining a
soft mouthfeel.

The ripening for the 2003 vintage carried well into the late
fall, typical of this vineyard which experiences the
afternoon breezes and climate effects of the Templeton Gap
which is open to the Pacific Ocean to the west.

Blackberry, anise, cedar with good tannin structure are
prevalent descriptors of this wine.
