Les Lunes North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

This is a classic California Cabernet that boasts a full body with firm structure, fresh acidity on the palate, and a long, full finish. The nose comes through with plush, dark fruit, followed by loads of cassis and cherry complemented with notes of leather and herbs. There is a firm tannic structure that is balanced by luscious blue/dark fruit on the palate and plenty of dried herbs, olives, and cassis on the nose. Delightful with its primary fruit, the wine does exceptionally well with grilled/roasted meats and veggies.  

This wine is made from a selection of Les Lunes' farmed vineyards throughout the Napa and Sonoma County as well as some of their favorite cooler climate sites. Les Lunes farms Ivanoff, Stone Barn and Locke Vineyards. Farming across all of the vineyards in this cuvee is strictly organic and regenerative, with a focus on soil health, good pruning, and minimal inputs to allow the sites to truly express themselves to their full potential.

The grapes from each vineyard were harvested and fermented separately at optimal ripeness and fermented at cool temperatures with 100% destemming. The lots were pressed at dryness (typically 10-14 days) and aged for 10 months in barrel and tank at which point the wine was racked off the fine lees and blended before bottling without fining nor filtering.

This ‘22 Cab reminisces on the style of winemaking that first put California on the map.
