2024 Montecillo Vineyard
Cabernet Sauvignon

Perched at 1800 feet up Moon Mountain on the Sonoma side of the Mayacamas is this utter jewel of an old-vine, dry-farmed Cabernet vineyard. Hailing from one of the most historic and oldest Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards in Sonoma, Montecillo is truly a paragon site. Located in the sub-AVA of Moon Mountain along the western side of the Mayacamas, its high elevation, combined with dry-farming and the rocky, unforgiving soils, makes for one of the most authentic, unique, and all-around best vineyard sites in the US.

The 2024 vintage leads with dark blue fruits, wild thyme, and herbs de Provence, followed by graphite, iron, and dark chocolate. Sleek and polished tannins, savory complexity and a distinct mineral edge reflect the intensity and character of this remarkable mountain vineyard.
