Gordenker Sylvia Drive Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 | Moon Mountain District

Discover an extraordinary expression of California winemaking with our limited-production Sylvia Drive Cabernet. Sourced exclusively from Gordenker’s sun-drenched estate in Sonoma County’s prestigious Moon Mountain District AVA, this 2016 vintage embodies mountain-grown intensity through meticulous vineyard management.

Artisanal Craftsmanship

Winemakers personally oversee every vine in this single-block parcel—selecting only the steepest slopes annually to maximize flavor concentration. By restricting crop yields dramatically below regional averages, we preserve the site’s distinctive minerality while developing remarkable depth. The result? A powerful yet elegant Cabernet Sauvignon showcasing true terroir transparency.

Vintage Character & Enjoyment

Expect bold layers of blackberry compote and dark plum interwoven with earthy notes of graphite and cedar. Structured tannins frame its 14.9% alcohol content beautifully—making this age-worthy red ideal for collectors or pairing with prime rib and hard cheeses. Cellar now through 2030+ or decant for immediate enjoyment.

Note: Store pricing/vintage availability may vary slightly; actual bottle year may differ from imagery.
