Our pride and joy, crafted with passion and dedication, this blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and 45% Sangiovese is a testament to our commitment to excellence. Grown with meticulous care on our estate since 1998, these dry-farmed vines have flourished thanks to Sherman and Kevin. From winter pruning to the crucial decision of harvest timing in the fall, Kevin's meticulous attention ensures the grapes reach their peak potential. Once they arrive at the winery, Lukas takes the reins, delicately guiding the transformation from vine to bottle. Each vintage from this vineyard is a unique expression of the season, capturing the essence of its terroir and climate. With every bottle, you experience a one-of-a-kind journey—so savor it while you can, because no two vintages will ever be the same!
