Clos Pegase Hommage Cabernet Sauvignon 1997

Whether rooted in the granite cobblestones of our Palisades Vineyard, or the white rocks of Graveyard Hill, the resulting cuvees of Cabernet Sauvignon bear a singular trait, concentration. Although our Estate Cabernet Vineyards are separated by 30 miles, and two climate zones, it is their highly prized soil profile that threads them together. We take the purest, and most intensely opulent wines, from individually selected barrels and blend them to create Hommage. The 97 offering marries Graveyard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon (60%), with Palisades Vineyard Cabernet (37%), and spiced with 3% Petit Verdot from our Home Ranch Vineyard on Dunaweal Lane. Gushing with ripe black fruit nestled in sweet oak and harmonious tannins, this decadent Cab should bring pleasure for several years to come.
