Tasting Notes The resulting wine has deep black cherry and currant fruit complemented by classic Rutherford expression of cocoa, cedar and black olive. Impressive and elegant, Hewitt Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon may be enjoyed in its youth or savored after years in the cellar.

Wine Maker Notes We chose to make a single-vineyard wine from Hewitt Vineyard because its fruit has such singular character that it deserves full expression. Rather than blend it into an ensemble with wines from other vineyards, we let it sing with its own unique voice. Hewitt Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a single-vineyard, limited-edition wine that highlights the character of our estate without overwhelming it. We harvest the grapes at peak maturity, ferment them for optimal extraction, age them slowly in new French oak and bottle without filtration.
