Juggernaut Hillside Cabernet Sauvignon
California 2020
Purity, Intensity and seamless Structure
French oak beautifully transforms intense hillside fruit into a wine with uncommon richness and smooth, luxurious texture. Juggernaut hillside Cabernet is a wine that is fierce, brave, and delicious.
Why Hillside Vineyards are special for Cabernet Sauvignon
Steep hillside vineyards present the ultimate challenge. Mountainous terrain tests both the grower and the vine.
But the results can be extraordinary.
These hillside vineyards have less access to water, with the rockier soil also holding fewer nutrients. These conditions stress the vines, resulting in the production of a fraction of the fruit of most vineyards. The harsh environment causes the vines to struggle, yielding fewer clusters and smaller berry size. The result is berries that are loaded with rich, ripe, intensely concentrated flavors and complexity.
Our hillside vineyards are special. So is the wine that is crafted from them.

Harnessing The Power of Nature
Overcoming Challenges Builds Character
Our grapes are grown in challenging conditions, where true grit and determination yield spectacular results.
Determined hillside Cabernet vines struggle to find purchase on steep, rocky slopes, where well-draining soils inspire roots to burrow deep in search of life-sustaining moisture. Steadfast Pinot Noir vines endure, unwavering, in inhospitable conditions, battered by wind and fog, struggling to utilize every precious hour of warmth and sunlight over a long growing season. Unpredictable conditions on Sonoma County’s far coast require resolute Chardonnay vines to persevere against stealthy fog and little sunlight.
Juggernaut wines harness the power of nature to produce robust, compelling wines as expressive as the powerful alpha-predators adorning our labels.
