Winemaker Notes
About the Blend:
With Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon echoing in the cellar, our winemaker crafted this custom Cabernet Sauvignon from premium Mendocino County fruit, blending a one-of -a-kind wine with Rock 'n Roll mythology. To capture the intense, brooding character of The Dark Side of the Moon, Winemaker Mark Beaman turned to a classic wine variety, Cabernet Sauvignon. A varietal with a deep, complex character that takes a relaxed environment to fully appreciate, Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the hauntingly dense, timeless character of Pink Floyd's masterpiece album.
