| Description: | Winery's Notes: "Mauka, meaning "towards the mountains" in Hawaiian language (my mother's heritage), is a cuve that was a long time coming. We've always been fascinated with Bordeaux varietals, but struggled to find the vineyards that gave us a more classical Cabernet profile, which is what we were looking for. However, we began working with some wonderful, cooler sites in the Willow Creek and Adelaida districts that finally gave us what we were looking for! Mauka is a wine that is both substantial in structure yet elegant in character. A dense nose of redcurrant, flint, woodsmoke, and umami notes is met with a dark, penetrating palate of mocha-laced blue and black fruits, bright acidity, and youthful tannins that roll into a long, textured finish.". Jeb Dunnuck 91-93 Points - "The 2020 Mauka offers lots of darker currants, tobacco, peppery herbs, and graphite to go with a medium to full-bodied, nicely focused, ripe, yet balanced profile. Another solid 2020 barrel sample, the Mauka is based on 48% Cabernet Sauvignon 40% Petite Sirah, and the rest Petit Verdot thats still resting in 65% new French oak." |
