Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon

Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon bottle

Nestled within the Mayacamas Range, the mountain side vineyard that this wine is harvested from benefits from the direct sunlight and well-drained, volcanic soils. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic expression of Mt. Veeder and displays the signature structured fruit, bold tannins and rich flavors that are associated with the region.

  • Winemaking

    The grapes were fermented on the skins for 25 days with pumpovers twice daily. After fermentation, the wine was gently pressed, racked and aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 45% new French Oak. Tightly grained, French oak barrels from forests in the center of France impart their oak on wines slowly for a consistent, well-rounded aging process while yielding subtle oak influences to the Cabernet Sauvignon.

  • Nose

    Exudes aromas of blackberry and allspice with an underlying layer of thyme.

  • Palate

    This full to medium bodied wine showcases flavors of toasted oak and jam that dance on the palate with just a touch of tobacco. Evolved tannins and perfect acidity lead way for a long, velvety finish.
