Planted in 2018 to four Cabernet Sauvignon clones, The Vida Valiente Estate is composed of the Cortina soil series: extremely well drained cobbled rock and sand.
The vineyard is also laced with large chunks of black obsidian, hence the name Glass Mountain, which borders it. This incredible site was formed after thousands of years of alluvial fallout, slowly creating this unique composition.
The Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon-clones 6, 4, and 7. Deep garnet-purple colored, it races out of the glass with intense, excuberant scents of black raspberries, crushed black currants and bing cherries, giving way to nuances of mint tea, rose oil, and graphite. The full-bodied palate is so light on its feet and elegantly styled, possessing fine-grained tanins that wrap about the savory and floral-laced flavors, finishing long and perfumed. Stunning! Only about 250 cases were made.
