This is one of the most unusual Cabernets in California. Waterhorse Ridge sits high in the Fort Ross-Seaview AVA on Sonoma's true coast, five miles from the Pacific, in a neighborhood best known for Pinot Noir from sites like Marcassin and Hirsch. The vineyard is dry-farmed, organic, and tiny, and John Lockwood of Enfield treats the fruit with the same restraint he brings to his Chardonnays: native co-fermentation, partial whole cluster, and a light touch on the oak. The result is a Cabernet with the freshness of a cool-climate Pinot and the structure of the variety. A genuine outlier.
