A part of the Highlands District of Paso Robles AVA, Truesdale vineyard’s deep inland location at 1,442 ft elevation and the south-facing slope create the ideal terroir for producing expressive, intensely flavored Cabernet Sauvignon fruit.
Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Fruit for this reserve wine is sourced from Truesdale vineyard in Paso Robles. The well-drained arbuckle and sandy loam soils combined with the vineyard’s deep inland location at 1,560 ft elevation and south-facing slope create the ideal terroir for intensely flavored wines with depth of flavor, excellent structure and naturally balanced acidity.
TASTING NOTES
A deep purple-ruby in the glass, this Reserve is fragrant and beautifully defined on the nose with aromas of macerated dark cherries, rich cassis, and candied violets which are further complexed with plum, dried herbs and cedar forest floor accents. The palate is vibrant, bursting with black and blue fruits, plum flavors, along with notes of warm fig and dark chocolate shavings. This wine is creamy textured, with seamlessly integrated fine tannins and brisk minerality that brings together all the layers in a long succulent finish.

FOR MORE THAN 40 YEARS, WE HAVE BEEN CRAFTING BOLD CABERNET SAUVIGNON ALONG CALIFORNIA’S CENTRAL COAST
Once home to farms and cattle ranches, Paso Robles is a warm expanse of sunbaked, oak-studded hills. Due to its proximity to the Pacific Ocean, vines see consistently hot, dry days with plenty of sunshine, followed by fog and coastal influences that cool the vines down at night.
