2021 Clone 337 Cabernet Sauvignon

The name “Clone 337” is full of mystery. What exactly do those numbers mean? To vintners, 337 foretells an early ripening Cabernet Sauvignon, ideal for cooler sites. 337 is often the first Cabernet Sauvignon block we harvest, creating an “Old World” Cabernet Sauvignon that is lighter on its feet, and perfect for the spring. This block also contains our estate’s oldest vines. 

Aromas of strawberry rhubarb, toasted almond and tobacco leaf lead into a palate exemplifies a delicate marriage of barrel and fruit tannins. The 2021’s nuanced tannic character and pie cherry notes add complexity to this full bodied, brightly acidic wine, which will continue to cellar beautifully through 2034.
