Cabenet Sauvignon


Clone: 337
Root Stock:101-14
Year planted:2001
Trellising: VSP 8x8
Total Acres: 4

This Cabernet always exhibits lots of fruit on the palate primarly cherry and blueberry. While the Cab is generally more of a fruit forward style there is still a moderate amount of tannins and acid. Cab from other areas can exhibit some green characteristics but we haven't seen it especially due to the extra hang time (generally harvest in late October/early November.
