The Mettler family heritage honors over 100 years and five generations of farming in Lodi with the release of this exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon. The size of the crop, the time spent on the vine, and the many months aged in French oak barrels all reflect the care our family took to fully express the potential of our estate vineyards.
Our Cabernet is exhibiting flavors of tart cherry on the front with notes of ripe blackberry on the finish. Toasted spices, like coriander can be detected as well as nutmeg. The French oak lends a nice addition of warm vanilla. Tannins are balanced and smooth. Our Cabernet would benefit from a few months of aging as its flavors are still evolving.
The grapes for this wine are from our estate vineyards and grown in three Lodi sub-appellations: Jahant, Clements Hills and Mokelumne River.
