Winemaker Notes
Foley Estate La Cuesta Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet in color, with attractive aromas of late-summer plum and black cherries allied to subtle tobacco and rich chocolate notes. These are confirmed in the mouth in a strong core of blackberry flavors and spice and chocolate top notes supported by firm, balanced tannins, ending on a lingering finish.
Alcohol: 13.5%
Foley Estates Vineyard & Winery at Rancho Santa Rosa is the realization of vintner Bill Foley's dream to produce world class Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in Santa Barbara County. A historic parcel located in the Santa Rita Hills region of the Santa Ynez Valley, Rancho Santa Rosa was formerly a thoroughbred horse ranch. In 1998, Bill purchased the 460-acre property and planted to 230 acres of vineyard. Devoted to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah, the vineyard has been subdivided into 59 micro-blocks with each being farmed, harvested and vinified separately. The handsome stables have been refurbished to house the winery, with tremendous detail going into the planning of a modern facility, while honoring age-old winemaking tradition. Highly regarded by leading wine critics and sommeliers, Foley’s Burgundian-influenced portfolio has become a flagship property in the South Central Coast.
