As a blend of our best Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard sites, the Stonestreet Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most compelling illustrations of the mountain Estate.

The Alexander Valley Chardonnay white wine is comprised of individual blocks from our best Alexander Valley vineyards. The grapes are harvested in the beginning to middle of September. The juice goes through native fermentation separately in both new and used French oak barrels. After alcoholic fermentation concluded, all barrels go through malolactic fermentation and continue aging on the lees for a total of 8 months. The barrels are stirred monthly, which helps to build a creamy texture and develop delicious aromas. This white wine exhibits aromas of nectarine, sweet lemon and hints of spiced cookie. Flavors of vanilla, marzipan and roasted hazelnut balance out the savory, rich mouthfeel with cascading acidity. All Matanzas Creek Winery estate vineyards are sustainably farmed and are certified under the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance (CCSW).

This powerful Cabernet Sauvignon from the hillsides of Alexander Valley has aromas of lush, red plum and dark berries that dominate the glass, while hints of cassis and milk chocolate play in the background. The dried fig and chewy tannins give this wine a strong backbone, while the 18 months of barrel aging have softened this bold wine just enough to enjoy now or with a cheese and charcuterie board, filet mignon with grilled vegetables or a dark chocolate mousse. Drink over the next five to seven years.
