Miyakma
100% Napa Cabernet! Miyakma, also known as Maiya'kma, is the indigenous word given to the Mayacama Mountain range by the Wappos, and means howling mountain lion, a presence that has encompassed the valley’s for thousands of years.
Destemmed and crushed into open-top fermenters, where it fermented to dry, then pressed in French neutral Oak where it aged for 14 months. These Cabernet clusters ripened slow and evenly under a canopy of shade resulting perfectly medium to medium+ bodied Cab that is both dry, yet fruit-forward.

Details:
"We had access to a second pick of a 30-year-old Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard, directly 10 miles east of Chenoa’s family’s property on the sloping ridges of the Eastern Mayacama range, situated on the acclaimed Rutherford dust. We spent 3 days handpicking this site, walking atop Mars-like soils, submerging ourselves into the upper canopy of the vines where beautiful, tight clusters dangled in the leaves' shade. A laborious but rewarding process, we harvested 1000lbs in the scorching harvest heat and gleaned fruit that would have otherwise been forgotten."
