This 25th edition was bottled in 2016 but the lots that were used in the blend can be of varying ages
to form the Bien Nacido Vineyard
from mussels and white fish to prosciutto
Chenin Blanc is an acidic grape
and then there is orange wine aged on the skins
Doren - 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon - Sonoma Valley, CA This 25th edition was bottledBen Doren, a restaurateur and wine distributor, had learned much about great wine and winemaking from his day jobs, so when his brother bought a house in Sonoma Valley near the town of Kenwood with a half acre of Cabernet Sauvignon and wondered what to do with the next crop, he jumped at the chance to make his own wines. Organically farmed, hand harvested and allowed a long, cool, completely natural fermentation, the wine is aged in 50% new French Oak
