Ashes & Diamonds Proprietary Red 'Mountain Cuvee - Bates Ranch' Santa Cruz Mountains 2016

This strong and concentrated blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc was made by Diana Snowden Seysses of Burgundy’s famed Domaine Dujac. Fruit hails from dry-farmed soils and is co-fermented with native yeasts and aged in oak, 35% of which is new. The final wine is plush and balanced, marked by well-integrated tannins, dark fruit, and a lengthy finish. Only 300 cases produced.
