"Spicy red and black fruits, resinous herbs, sage, and baking spices all shine in the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder, a medium to full-bodied, pure, layered, complex style that has the vintage's upfront, perfumed profile. It's balanced, has sweet tannins, and a surprising amount of accessibility and charm for a Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon."

"The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder is laced with hints of iron, white pepper, chalk, mint and dried herbs. The Mount Veeder is another Cabernet in this range that is a bit on the softer side. Even so, it conveys tons of Veeder character in its red-toned fruit and earthy notes."

The 2022 Mount Veeder blend possesses an earth-driven, mountain character rich with aromas of bay laurel, forest loam and a hint of wild blackberry. The opulent concentration of the palate is shaped by well-integrated oak that resolves in a seamless and lengthy finish.

  • Bay Laurel
  • Wild Blackberry
  • Oak

Created by uplift from seismic activity and movement of tectonic plates some 12 million years ago, Mount Veeder is derived from ancient sea beds. These sedimentary soils are infused with the decayed remnants of the forests native to the area, which leads to a distinctively dark berry and exotic, wild mountain character. Because of the rugged, steep terrain of this mountain appellation, the yields are inherently miniscule, with tiny berries bursting with concentrated and densely tannic structures.

Vintage NotesAmple winter rain, followed by temperate and dry conditions through March gave us a good start to the vintage.  The spring and summer months were consistent and warm, resulting in small but healthy canopies and balanced vines. Labor Day came with a curveball from Mother Nature in the form of a prolonged heat wave that accelerated harvest at many of our vineyard sites, followed immediately by much cooler weather and a bit of rain. This refreshing slow-down allowed the remaining grapes to hang a bit longer, yielding beautifully balanced fruit and polished tannin. Overall the 2022 vintage is fresh with pure, concentrated flavors.
