Description
Farmer-First Sonoma Cabernet from an Epic Vintage
Pied à Terre — “foot to earth” — is a philosophy as much as a label. This producer believes the farmer’s footprint is the best fertilizer and the most important sight in a vineyard: when the land is well-trodden, the vine will be well-tended. Their 2018 Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon comes from one of California’s great recent vintages — cooler temperatures and a long growing season produced wines of exceptional structure and concentration without overripeness.
