Vineyard Notes
A hidden gem with a unique location and its own microclimate. Represents the Spirit of Spring Mountain District Appellation. It is the most southern, easterly facing vineyard on Spring Mountain on White Sulphur Springs Road. It sits isolated alone at an elevation of approximately 1,100 feet between two streams in a canyon surrounded by forever-wild conservation land donated by the Marston family. Cool afternoon breezes pass through a gap in the Mayacamas directly west of the vineyard permitting the fruit to ripen slowly and uniformly. Established vineyard since the late 1800’s, Marston Family Vineyard produces a limited quantity of single vineyard, proprietor grown, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon made by acclaimed winemaker, Philippe Melka.
