Every once in a while, something special happens and you just can’t let go. As we sampled the 2006 components from our DuBrul Vineyard, one lot of Cabernet Sauvigon from the east end of our hillside block stood out. Month after month we marveled at the rich flavors, aromatics, depth and finish.
Our convictions grew as we followed these two barrels: this Cabernet was meant to stand alone. After aging for 22 months in French oak, the wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered. We hope you enjoy this taste of one tiny area of our DuBrul Vineyard.

Côte Bonneville Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 96pts WS
Supple, velvety and elegant, this shows hidden reserves of power, unfurling its plum, currant, blackberry, bay leaf and peppery cream aromas and flavors on a refined frame. The finish goes on and on, and the flavors keep glowing. Drink now through 2020. 40 cases made. –HS
