The 2022 single-vineyard-designate Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon has bright aromatics of cranberries and chocolate. Ample red and black fruit follow on the palate, mixed with chocolate, cedar, tobacco, loamy earth, and notes of violet. This wine’s expressive and lush qualities are balanced with minerality and evoke classic characteristics of this renowned vineyard, located on the western bench of the Oakville AVA in the foothills of the Mayacamas Mountains.

100 points | Jonathan Cristaldi, Decanter, March 2025
“A stylish, polished wine—super-suave and expressive, with rich, perfectly weighted fruit and gorgeous, super-fine tannins infused with an iron-scented minerality. Beautifully compact yet intensely juicy, it bursts with red and black fruit, layered with gravelly mineral depth. The exceptional tension and structure give it poise and balance, making it a masterful effort that radiates freshness, precision and impeccable harmony.”
