2006 Cabernet Sauvignon, Pedregal Vineyard, Oakville

Purchase

Vintage Notes

The 2006 vintage started out slowly, with cool temperatures from March through June, pointing to a later than normal harvest.  A ten-day heat wave in July pushed the season along, though, and these vineyards were harvested fully mature during the second half of October.

Winemaking

This vintage is a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Petit Verdot.

Winemaker Notes

Our third vintage from this small, outstanding vineyard on the lower slopes of the eastern Oakville hills.  Pedregal indicates “stony place” in Spanish, and that is certainly a distinguishing feature of the site.
