Item Description

"This is high-class winemaking aiming for total equilibrium and balance."
—Robert M. Parker, Jr. The Wine Advocate

 

2015 Windfall Cabernet Sauvignon


A timeless wine from the Rutherford appellation, our Windfall Vineyard Cabernet is barrel fermented, a labor intensive practice which is only practicable because of the small quantities we produce. Lovingly crafted to John and Nat’s most discriminating specifications, this is a wine to enjoy now and to cellar, to return to again and again as it evolves and deepens.

2018 Komes Family Red Blend

Within the Komes Family Vineyard is a small sub-block of less than six acres from which we source Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for our Jon Nathaniel wines. This sub-block, directly adjacent to John Komes’ home in the Rutherford appellation, is itself divided. The Cabernet Franc covers a small, east-facing hillside which slopes down to the north, while the Petit Verdot is planted just below, on a flat area west of Bale Slough. These parcels were planted in the late 1990s and 2000s to a mixture of rootstocks and clones. Featuring deep, well-drained soils derived from mixed rock sources, these blocks are some of the best on the ranch, with vines that yield precious quantities of concentrated, intensely-flavored fruit.
