Winemaker's Notes:

 Soils warmed by underground natural hot springs and gentle coastal breezes work together to create a unique microclimate resulting in ideal growing conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon. This 1997 Olive Hill Vineyards Cabernet exhibits intense deep berry, subtle plum, and rich chocolate flavors. Extended ageing in the highest quality French oak barrels produces a wine with balance, complexity, and an elegant finish.
