the Earnest's Eye
As we embarked upon this collaborative endeavor, unforeseen challenges arose, most notably the global pandemic. Amidst these trials, we discovered our inspiration and project name, “The Earnest’s Eye,” representing vision and determination within the beholder. Beyond its symbolic significance, it serves as a profound reminder of the resilience and unwavering loyalty of the beautiful souls – past and present – who have left an indelible mark on our lives.

Wine Profile:
With the elegance one expects from an Oakville Cabernet, this new beauty is firm and weighty, giving way to a clean, precise, and chiseled mouthful. While it is aromatically dark chocolate now, it will become even more fruit positive and fan out in another 5-8 years.
Palate Impressions:
Well-rounded tannins give the mid palate multi-dimensional bliss, with layers of both black and blue fruits, cassis, and faint cocoa. Packed with just the right amount of spice, this is a medium to full bodied wine.
