Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 'Mazzetti Block'
The ‘Mazzetti Block’ enjoys a southeasterly slope toward the creek and afternoon shade, leading to more hangtime on the vine. It is named after Marco’s great-grandmother, Maddalena ‘Nonnie’ Mazzetti, who immigrated to the United States from Southern Italy and ran a boarding house for Italian immigrants in New York.
This wine is for anyone who loves Cabernet and cherishes time around the table with family and friends.
Deep garnet in appearance, leads to aromas of fresh mission fig, raspberry preserve, and an herbaceous melange. On the palate, bright Santa Rosa Plums are accompanied by notes of leather and wet stone with a hint of graphite. A luxurious and powdery tannin, accompanied by punctual acidity, yields an elegant and round feel.

Mezzogiorno
Mezzogiorno is our proprietary blend. The blend and varietals change annually. A deep golden color often yields elevated herbal and citrus aromatics, which combine to create a unique harmony. These wines will be defined by exceptional acidity and texture. Preserved Eureka lemon and crushed wet granite highlight a vast flavor profile.
A soft, canary appearance leads to aromatics of pineapple, sage, and coconut. Roasted chestnut and Bergamot orange highlight the flavor profile, yielding an exceptional balance that is punctuated by a sprightly finish.
The barrels and lots for this proprietary white blend were carefully selected to curate a sophisticated wine for all seasons.
Mezzogiorno translates to ‘noon or middle of the day’ in Italian, but don't let that intimidate you at your next dinner party.
