Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Aging in bourbon barrels highlights the natural fruit flavors, infuses the wine with rich hints of bourbon vanilla and softens the roguish tannins. It’s a balanced, sophisticated experience crafted from the most rugged terrain—a delicious oxymoron. We source our Cab from the highest elevations of Lake County where the grapes develop deep, dense flavors, robust tannins and infinite personality.

2022 was a unique year in the vineyards, every three to four weeks, an unusual weather phenomenon would pass through the warm and temperate spring. The start of summer was marked by a heat wave that reached up to 110˚ F in Lake County, a little lower than our southern neighbors. We've never experienced such heat, followed by heavy rain, in the middle of summer. The two inches we got put off picking until the soil dried up and the brix level rose. This harvest was like playing a game of weather dodgeball.
