In the mountains above Glen Ellen, 2008 was a warmer, riper vintage than our 2007 in Glen Ellen. This
resulted in more mature wines with rounder, softer tannic structures. This year’s Cabernet Sauvignon
Sonoma Valley reflects this. Only 500 cases were produced in 2008, one of our smallest Cabernet releases
ever. Only the best Cabernet blocks, including harvests from both the red, basalt and the white, rhyolite
soils were selected.
