WINE DESCRIPTION
Crafted under the gentle touch of the morning sun, our East Elevation Cabernet Sauvignon thrives on a thirty percent slope. The vineyard, nestled in slightly deeper soil, enjoys the morning sun's embrace, shielding it from the harsh afternoon rays. This deliberate shading allows for a gradual ripening of the grapes, enhancing their voluptuous character. The resulting wine is a masterpiece, displaying remarkable finesse and elegance. Its enduring finish, aglow with radiance, is a testament to the meticulous care taken in harnessing the nuances of sunlight, soil, and time.
