This Wine Ships To:

Goldschmidt Vyborny Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon comes from a remarkable site situated on a northeastern slope in the renowned Alexander Valley. The vineyard is situated on a terraced knoll, just east of the town of Geyserville and is comprised primarily of a gravelly loam soil. The slope direction provides excellent exposure of the grape clusters and allows for long hang time. This provides us with perfectly formed bunches of grapes that possess optimal ripeness and fully developed varietal character. The unique combination of exposure, soil conditions, drainage, and mature vines produces wines of rich, concentrated flavors that showcase the true character of the region, the vineyard, and the varietal.

Our goal is to highlight the special characters of this noble varietal while showcasing the distinct benefits and attributes associated with this magnificent vineyard site. The Goldschmidt Vineyard Vyborny Cabernet is a full bodied wine with supple tannins, luxurious texture, and a lengthy finish. Goldschmidt Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is hand crafted, utilizing the best possible resources available. The wine is exceptional and exhibits the richness and balance that are the hallmarks of world class wines.

Winemaker's Notes

After 24 vintages of making wine, the Goldschmidt Vineyard Series is the most important that I make. As you know I make many millions of cases of wine but with Goldschmidt Vyborny Vineyard I help pick, pump over, shovel out, barrel fill, barrel rack and bottle. I am hands-on all the way and leave no stone unturned. I don't get to truly do that anywhere but here. This vineyard is really special as well. It faces north which is a very unusual aspect for Alexander Valley and the resultant cooler temperatures permit longer hangtimes. Unfined and unfiltered, here is a wine with great drive and power. Truly a real wine of place. --Nick Goldschmidt
