Vineyard 36 2021 The King's Storm Cabernet Franc

Winemaker Notes

Perched at 1,700’ of elevation along Wall Road on the north end of the Mount Veeder AVA, this 6.5-acre vineyard is destined for greatness. The site was planted and managed by the same man who farmed the neighboring Pym Rae vineyard for Robin Williams for more than two decades, and it is no surprise that the resulting wines are so similar. The sandy, gravel-based soils of shale with a sandstone topsoil produce wines that are black in color with very low PH values and naturally high acids. A perfect combination for longevity. The beauty of this warmer, fog-free northern section of Mount Veeder is that the wines are free of any unwanted vegetal or rustic characteristics that can affect cooler climate sites to the south.

 Every legend has a legacy. Every wine has a story to tell. To pay homage to those significant nights in both Cam & Tim's first NHL games - we decided that this distinctive wine deserved a significant name. In those moments "The King's Storm" was born - combining "King" from Tim's first team, LA King's and "Hurricanes" (AKA Storm) from Cam's - this illustrious wine now takes a prominent name in our collection

Important, Impressive, Integral. The King's Storm is created from our story, with a desire for you to spark many stories of your own.
