Model Farm Sonoma Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 (750ml) ShopFrom 25+ year old vines on Sonoma Mountain, the 2023 vintage was shaped by patience. A remarkably cool season led to our latest harvest ever on October 24. Sonoma Mountains cool, east facing slopes naturally extend the ripening window, offering something rare in Cabernet: full maturity without high alcohols or sacrificing acidity. While many chase power, we seek refinement, elegance, purity, and pleasure. In the cellar, we embrace heritage winemaking
