For thirty years, Kenwood Vineyards has been granted the exclusive rights to produce and market wines from Jack London's historic vineyard in Glen Ellen. This unique red-volcanic soil vineyard, located on the eastern slope of Sonoma Mountain, was first planted in the late 1800’s.  It has always produced red wines distinct in depth and varietal character

The 2006 vintage  had a long growing season with low yields resulting in grapes with intense flavor and rich character.  The fruit was picked at the peak of ripeness in late September in early October and then crushed into stainless steel tanks for fermentation.  After fermentation the young wine was pressed and settled before aging in French and American oak barrels for two years.  The resulting wine has rich mouth feel as well as powerful fruity and aromatic flavors. Delicious now, this Cabernet will continue to develop and improve for at least a decade.
