Merchant's description

Diamond Creek has a celebrated history of producing some of the most sought-after single-vineyard wines in California. Red Rock Terrace is a north-facing vineyard planted - as the name implies - on iron-rich rocky soil. The Red Rock Terrace Cabernet Sauvignon has always been considered the most accessible and earliest-drinking Diamond Creek wines. Fully mature, this Cabernet shows appealing earth and red cherry fruit with light floral tones and a hint of forest floor.
