| "Sitting on the west side of the property [in Calistoga], the vineyard features volcanic alluvial soil because of its proximity to Mt. St. Helena. That volcanic soil is what creates an ideal environment for root water absorption. Equally noteworthy are the extreme diurnal temperature variations (daytime heat intensity contrasted by chilly evenings). The heat imparts deep color and complexity to our fruit while the cooler evenings help maintain acidity and structure. Under the direction of vineyard consultant Kelly Maher, we planted the northeast block of the vineyard (which includes venerable Block 3) in Cabernet Sauvignon using clone 337 root stalk 101-14. To add layers of complexity, we planted Cabernet Franc (clone 332, rootstock 101-14) and Petit Verdot (clone 3, rootstock 101-14) on the very southern edge of the vineyard .... Cult Winemaker Kirk Venge was recruited to create balanced wines reflecting varietal character and a sense of place. Passionate about our vineyard site, integral to our clone and root stalk selections, and now 15 years in, Kirk has reinforced their instinct that focus should always be on 'sense of place' to understand the nuances that allow us to make great wine."

| "This is explosive Cabernet Sauvignon ..." Robert M. Parker, Jr., Wine Advocate |
| | | "Produced from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Block 3 has a deep garnet-purple color. After a few swirls, it comes barreling out of the glass with bold notes of wild blueberries, blackberry preserves and cassis, plus hints of chocolate mint and rose oil. Full-bodied, rich and plush, it coats the mouth with tons of juicy black fruit and delivers a long, fragrant finish."
