2021 51Weeks Winemaking Cabernet Sauvignon, Destiny Ridge Vineyard
Destiny Ridge Vineyard has silty loam soil on the north side of the Columbia River Gorge, east of where the rugged gorge begins to round out. This location receives constant wind and is perched several hundred feet above the river. The combination of silty loam soil and windy conditions keeps the canopy of the vineyard short, which leads to concentrated, thick-skinned Cabernet Sauvignon berries. We ferment in small lots and vary the treatments to tease out the complexity from the fruit. This approach retains the dark berry and spicy fruit flavors while layering in considerable texture that allows this wine to age gracefully in the bottle for many years.
