Fait-Main Tierra Roja Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 750ml

Tierra Roja sits on the east side of Oakville, neighbored by Screaming Eagle, Dalla Valle, and Rudd. Originally planted to vine in the 1920s by the Denatale family, the property came into its own under Linda Neal’s stewardship. Linda and her family ran a Napa Valley vineyard management company for many years, and she terraced the sloping hillsides and replanted with Cabernet Sauvignon in the late ‘80s.

The red soils that inspired the vineyard’s name are rich in iron and rock, producing intense dark fruit with long, silky tannins.
