2023 Moon Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon, 750mL
Description
The Moon Mountain District is Sonoma’s rising star, celebrated for producing bold, age-worthy Cabernets from high-altitude volcanic slopes. Perched between 400 and 2,200 feet, this region is defined by rugged terrain and iron-rich volcanic soils that yield Cabernet Sauvignon of remarkable intensity and structure. While this high-elevation region is currently the talk of the industry, its roots run deep; a cornerstone of this blend hails from the historic Monte Rosso Vineyard. Established in the 1880s, Monte Rosso is a site of unparalleled heritage, or as winemaker Erich Bradley puts it, "the cat’s meow." Our 2023 vintage is a true powerhouse, balancing rich texture with layers of cassis, dark chocolate, and vibrant fruit to offer a profound sense of place.

The nose of this Cabernet leads with aromas of fresh cranberry, currant, black pepper, and flowers. The palate is structured by rich, velvety tannins and silky acidity that frames flavors of tart cherry, blackberry jam, pencil shavings, cinnamon, and chopped green herbs that elevate a long finish. — Tom R.

Sourced from two vineyard in the Moon Mountain District, the 2023 Sojourn ‘Moon Mountain’ Cabernet Sauvignon offers wet rock and tar on the nose with cassis and pencil lead. The palate is soft and elegant with a smooth mouthfeel and wonderful feel of tension, as medium to full bodied red and dark fruits parade with rocky soils.
