High atop Atlas Peak, at 1,700 feet in elevation, lies a rugged vineyard once carved from rock and earth by sheer determination. What began 40 years ago as raw, untamed land is now a site of distinction, neighboring the historic Stagecoach Vineyard. The Cabernet Sauvignon vines here struggle against rocky soils and the mountain climate, yielding fruit of remarkable concentration and character. Each vintage reflects both the power and grace of Atlas Peak — a true mountain Cabernet of enduring elegance.
96 points (The Wine Independent)
"Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Hendrickson Vineyard offers classic notes of cassis, juicy plums, and cedar chest, followed by nuances of cumin seed, tar, and underbrush. The medium to full-bodied palate is layered with earth-laced black fruit flavors, supported by grainy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing on a minerally note." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
