Introduction

Red Wine: 1977 | Diamond Creek Vineyards | Gravelly Meadow Cabernet Sauvignon

Depth and complexity it has in spades, as it offers up a fine mlange of dark berries, a touch of black raspberry, stony soil tones, a bit of bell pepper, some stemmy notes, woodsmoke and a delicate topnote of violet. On the palate the wine is fullish, deep and complex.

Producer Information

Diamond Creek, California’s first “Cabernet only” estate vineyard, was established in 1968. Visionary pioneer, Al Brounstein, defied modern convention and planted Bordeaux varietals on secluded Diamond Mountain. The three distinct soil types on theis 20-acre property produce different single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons. Light ash soild of Volcanic Hill is in sharp contrast to the iron-rich Red Rock Terrace and the pebbly Gravelly Meadow. Each year, the estate produces a small amount of long-lived wines that are revered by connoisseurs the world over.
