Helena Dakota Cabernet Sauvignon Vertical Set

Cabernet Sauvignon Knights Valley

$990

DESCRIPTION

This is a 6-bottle set. 2 bottles each of the 2013, 2014 & 2015 vintages. On the western slopes of the Mayacamas Mountains, Knights Valley is a unique growing area that combines the power of Napa Valley and the finesse of Sonoma County. Helena Dakota is defined by its power, structure and sophistication. It possesses layers of plums, anise, cassis, leather, bay leaf and cedar that are galvanized by a streak of minerals and bold tannins. This is a solidly-built wine that will stand the test of time.

Pocket Peak

Our vineyards lie within the proposed Pocket Peak American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the eastern highlands of the Alexander Valley AVA.

Pocket Peak is defined by its elevated topography and distinctions in climate, precipitation, and soils. The petition to establish Pocket Peak as a new AVA was filed with the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau in February 2022.

Alexander Valley

The Stonestreet winery and tasting room sit on the tranquil valley floor facing the mountains where we farm our fruit.

The Alexander Valley AVA was made official in 1984, and it outlines the path of the Russian River flowing from Mendocino County down to Healdsburg. Grapes were grown commercially in this valley as early as the 1840s and gained a reputation for superb quality in the 1960s and ‘70s. The proposed Pocket Peak AVA will distinguish between grapes grown at high elevation—including Stonestreet fruit—and grapes grown in the valley below.
