2021 Cypress Ranch Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Our Cypress Ranch Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a highly structured, single-vineyard wine from the Vaca Mountains, one of California’s Coast Ranges. The medium ruby hues that show in the glass reveals the warmth and sunny location where the grapes thrive. Aromas of chocolate covered cherry, black currant and baking spice lead to notes of cherry cola, cocoa powder and stewed black plum. Pleasing on the palate, this Cabernet boasts plush, ripe tannins that add to the complexity on the long finish.

The Wine Advocate, July 3, 2024
This Pope Valley site has yielded a very successful 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Cypress Ranch Vineyard, which has evolved nicely over the past year. Blended with a bit of Merlot, it offers up aromas of mixed red and black cherries, plus hints of dried sage, menthol and cedar. It's full-bodied but not overblown, silky textured and elegant, finishing with fine-grained tannins and ample length.
