Winemaker Notes
COLOR: strong, bright purple edge with a black center
NOSE: medium cassis fruit, cocoa/coffee tones above deep dark fruit
MOUTH: medium length, an intriguing wet stone/mineral edge, sweet, ripe fruit in the finish, fine grained tannins
OVERALL: excellent balance, bright acidity balances sweet fruit, needs a couple of years to show its best Now, to find out what the wine really tastes like, open a bottle and drink it. It should be pretty tasty with grilled meats and full-flavored foods.

Laurel Glen Vineyard, a thousand feet up the slopes of Sonoma Mountain, has long been considered one of the iconic Cabernet vineyards of California. Originally planted in the 1880’s, the present-day vineyard was developed in the 1970’s by Sonoma wine pioneer Patrick Campbell. The 1st vintage of Laurel Glen Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon was made in 1981. The vineyard’s combination of high altitude, eastern exposure, rocky soils, and small diurnal temperature swings combine to produce very distinctive wines. Despite its small production, the wine has received international acclaim for its exceptional balance, elegance and ability to age gracefully.
