Ultraviolet Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Soft and supple, the with flavors of sappy black fruit, cherry, dark chocolate, and baking spice

Ultraviolet Wines are an homage to the California climate where winemaker Samantha Sheehan grew up - it is a pure expression of fruit ripened under the California sun.

This wine is made up of 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc. The 2022 vintage comes from the Norgard Farms vineyard in Mendocino. The vineyard is just east of Ukiah in the Talmage Bench. The site was planted in 1980 on Pinole soil, which allows for good drainage. The blocks are farmed organically, and the vineyard is certified fish friendly. The Cabernet Franc comes from Samantha's property in Coombsville, as well as a neighboring property. Both vineyards are farmed organically and set on the well-draining Coombs gravelly loam soil.

Aged in neutral French oak for 12 months.
