The 2008 “Estate” Cabernet Sauvignon is the second release of the new Estate Only bottling crafted to highlight the unique character of the special “Vineyard 7 & 8” terroir.

Planted back in the early 1980’s, the mature vines of the estate benefit from white volcanic tuff well drained soil, producing small concentrated clusters and berries. The resulting lots of barrels displayed intensity, complexity, richness and depth. Each vintage, the “Estate” wine is made to represent the best the estate has to offer. Built to age gracefully for several decades, the “Estate” Cabernet is a memory of a very special place. Enjoy!
