This year we tried a number of barrels and we narrowed it down to 2 that we really loved as 2023 is a fantastic vintage for California. One barrel Aaron gave the edge to and another barrel Chris and Paul gave the edge to too. So, we decided to order 2 barrels!!! They finally arrived today!! We picked these out months ago.

"more French in style"
Estate Grown
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Aging: 24 months in a single small American oak Barrel
Yield: 288 bottles (we were told it would be about 300)
2023 Ironstone / TWCP Single Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve "Chris & Paul"....$27.99
"more classic California"
The Vineyards: Located at 2400 ft. above sea level, these grapes were estate- grown at our Hay Station Ranch vineyard where warm days are cooled by the evening mountain air. This area’s unique soil of decomposed granite mixed with volcanic sediment and red clay produce a wonderful mineral component. Grapes have been grown in the Sierra Foothills for 150 years.
Some generic thoughts on the vintage!
