2018 Jaimee Motley Wines Cabernet Sauvignon "Peter Martin Ray Vineyard" Santa Cruz Mountains, California, USAABOUT THIS WINE A vibrant expression of mountain Cabernet. Upon entry, polished tannins take hold and are framed with incredible acidity. This wine is drinking beautifully right now, however it will definitely go the distance in regards to aging. 25% whole cluster fermentation, basket pressed, and aged in new Stockinger and neutral 500 liter barrels for 21 months. The vines are own rooted and planted in 1971, Massa has been farmed organically since

The Estate adhered to traditional picking dates and the Cabernets came in showing healthy fruit and a very high skin-to-pulp ratio

Perhaps some of the complexities found in Clos des Papes are in the wine due to different soils their vines are planted in

This was followed in 1966 by the first Geyserville zinfandel
