Sourced from and named for the extremely rocky soil beneath our most exposed Oakville vineyard block, Pierra is a reflection of its sun-drenched, volcanic terroir and meter-by-meter planting on an astoundingly steep slope. The resulting wine is a fascinating interplay of the rigorous yet rewarding process to farm this block, yielding the most delicate and floral Cabernet Sauvignon. Crushed stone captivates while dark and red fruits jump forth, and its creamy cassis and dark flowers astound. Smooth, dusty density from textured tannins WOW in this otherworldly beauty.

praise for 2012 pierra

"The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Pierra comes from the winery’s steepest slopes on its highest eastern valley elevation. Some minerality can be found, but the wine is currently dominated by its gorgeous dark black cherry component. This meaty, full-bodied, opulent 2012 possesses good acidity, excellent tannin, real sucrosity and generosity, and a full-bodied, long finish. It should turn out to be something special. There is something almost Rhône-like in this beauty. Drink it over the next 10-15 years."
