34 Acres | Hwy 29, Western base of Yountville Hill
Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon

Situated on the western base of the Yountville hill, at the southern edge of Oakville. Rock Cairn derives its name from ancient rock piles constructed by indigenous people as offerings for safe passage throughout the hills. The vineyard, featuring a gradual 2-5% slope, boasts deep, gravelly loam and a western exposure, creating an ideal environment for Cabernet Sauvignon vines that yield intensely concentrated fruit in the late season. With multiple blocks planted between 1984 and 2023, this vineyard presents a diverse range of flavor profiles.
