Winemaker Mitch Hawkins is currently producing some of the finest Cabernet Sauvignon ever made in Lake County, in the hills northeast of the Napa Valley. His 2016 Block Three is yet another stunning Cab from Mitch, on a par with more famous wineries in neighboring Napa. This vintage is rich and dense, with aromas of blackberry and spice, a note of graphite and beautifully integrated tannins. A Platinum Award winner at the 2020 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
