2010 Kathryn Kennedy Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Santa Cruz Mountains

The coolest summer growing season ever, has given a monumental vintage that at present ranks as the very best Cabernet from this single vineyard label. The gradual nature of the autumn weather allowed one of the longest hangtime on record and the resulting grape- vine physiological maturity that is at the heart of this wine’s quality and structure.
The 2010 is a saturated cool climate Cabernet Sauvignon with almost unlimited potential for cellar development. It has true varietal intensity with deep berry and herb notes com- bined with our signature mineral terroir flavor all carried on a dense and polished tannin frame. A wine for the ages, this is not to be missed and may end up being the pinnacle achievement from this seven acres site in Saratoga, California
