The Kingsnake Cabernet Sauvignon, The 40 degree slope on these vines is the definition — a rare and extraordinary wine from a superb site.
Vines were planted in 1999 on 110R rootstock which excels in rocky soils on steep slopes.
The red volcanic and tufa soils give this Cabernet a wild, blackened berry character, coupled with touches of warm blue fruit and spice.
Variation in soils within this small block require hand harvesting and management.
The yields are a meager 1.3 tons to the acre, but the fruit possesses a rare power and expression of site.
TASTING NOTES
Notes of fresh cigar tobacco, inky mulberries, stewed blackberries, and violets. Aromas of ripe purple fruit fills the room upon opening. This three barrel selection was selected for its great intensity, remarkable weight, and vibrant fresh acidity.Aged 20 months 65% New Tight Grained French Oak
