Gregory Graham's 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the Crimson Hill Vineyard in the Red Hills district of Lake County. The vineyard is at 2,000 feet elevation and overlooks the southern end of Clear Lake. This vineyard was planted with 13 acres of Clone 7 Cabernet in 1995. The soils are red and volcanic and provide the perfect site for growing great red wines. The climate is ideal for late season reds because during the long growing season, the vineyard receives daily full sun with warm temperatures which are tempered by afternoon mistrals.
The wine exhibits aromas of ripe plum and fig, with highlights of chaparral spice, clove and dried herbs. The lively, concentrated flavor bursts with ripe berries and sweet oak with a long finish. This structured wine calls for full throttle fare such as grilled meats and game.
