Wine Notes
AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY TO MEMBERS
Left Bank showcases Moon Mountain Vineyard in its prime. Though the wine draws inspiration from Bordeaux, Left Bank’s true legacy is the enduring strength of this special place. A week- long heat wave shortly before the 2016 harvest concentrated the combination of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc into a powerful display of both masculinity and elegance. Despite the stress of the late-season temperatures, 20 years of comprehensive organic farming nurtured the mountain and ensured the hillside- grown fruit gained considerable complexity and depth under duress – the hallmark of a vineyard at its peak.
