Winemaker Notes
Haywood Vintner's Select Cabernet Sauvignon is characterized by its dark ripe color and aromas of cherry, soft oak and hints of vanilla. The full flavors of Bing cherries and spice are abundant, and complemented by a well balanced acidity with light tannins that linger throughout the pleasant finish.
Haywood Estates Los Chamizal Vineyard overlooks the historic town of Sonoma in the southern reaches of the Mayacamas Mountains. Guided by founder Peter Haywood, Los Chamizal Vineyard produced its first crush in 1980, and so began the legacy of robust, elegant Zinfandels.
The soils are shallow - six inches to two feet – giving way to fractured red rock or volcanic tuft soil. The low nutrient levels contribute to the intense character of the wines by limiting growth and restricting leaf production. Cooling wind and fog off the mountain and from nearby San Francisco Bay keep the days temperate and the nights cool. The vineyard is comprised of eight blocks, two of which have been separated out due to their unique and distinctive characters: Rocky Terrace and Morning Sun.
