The 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine with multi-layered flavors of blackberry and cassis.
The long, warm growing season of 2007 resulted in well ripened fruit with an abundance of rich, yet very soft and full bodied tannins.
Truly a wine that can be cellared and enjoyed for many years.
The 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine that possesses layers of cherry, blackberry, coffee, cedar and vanilla.
Rich, intense and complex, the 1999 vintage will be remembered as a wine that will continue to improve with time.
The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon is a richly textured wine with intense, ripe flavors of black cherry, blackberry, plum and cassis.
This full bodied wine is well balanced with moderate tannins and a long, expansive finish.
The unique characteristics of this wine can be attributed to the conditions found only on Atlas Peak, including the rich volcanic soil indigenous to Atlas Peak and a distinctive microclimate located at an altitude of 1500 feet.
