We’re giving the lead to Cabernet Sauvignon but we’re embracing Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah and Petit Verdot in supporting roles. The grapes are grown in the very special California appellations of Santa Ynez, Happy Canyon and around Buellton. Once vinified, the wine ages for up to 2 years in only old (never new) French wood where it develops and takes on a beautiful patina.
