Grown mostly from the Coombsville region in southern Napa Valley, the Modus Operandi cab blend is always a barrel selection of my finest Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards from my favorite new French oak barrels. The grapes were hand sorted in the vineyard, optical sorted by the amazing Pellanc machine, then hand sorted again on 30 feet of sorting table with 16 people ensuring that only the most perfect berries make it to our fermentation vessels. Here we fermented in 100% new French oak barrels, and matured in 75% new French oak for 24 months.
