Martin Ray Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 750 ML

This high-elevation site on the northern side of Mt. Veeder is nestled in the heart of the Mayacamas Mountains. From a mere 6.5-acre vineyard carefully planted to optimize sun exposure, in soil that is composed of gravel based shale and sandstone. This small parcel develops rich mountainous fruit with distinctive herbaceous layers and a powerful structure. Rich elderberry and cassis, with notes of savory evergreen and fennel buds. Black cherry throughout, with leather, chicory root, cocoa powder, and graphite. Taut and precise, with a distinctive minerality over a savory finish that contrasts the deep, dark fruit.
