This fine wine originated at the Shultz Family Vineyards, where premium grapes are cultivated in three blocks named after the Shultz children: Matthew, Morgan, and Mikayla. Nestled in the Sierra Foothills, the long, warm days and cool nights are ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon. Time-honored practices are combined with the latest research to grow some of California’s most beautiful vines. Carefully managed by hand, the vine canopy grows luscious little berries that are harvested at the peak of ripeness to yield focused, intense flavor. The fruit is then crafted into premium wines at Stonehouse Vineyards & Winery.
With the Cabernet Sauvignons becoming our flagship wines, this 2003 Cab explains itself. True to the varietal and reputation of Cab, this massively elegant wine has flavors of cherry and cassis, and black currant that seems to fight for the palate ’s attention. Scents of dill, sage, and sweet tobacco excite the senses while exhibiting a bold mouthfeel backed by firm, yet refined, tannins and perfectly balanced acidity. Ending with flavors of oak and vanilla, this Cab has it all.

This Ultra-Premium bottling of 2004 Cab is our benchmark blend of this "King of Reds." Handcrafted throughout the winemaking process, and bottled in honor of the late Gerald E. Shultz, whose legacy lives on, this wine was put together by selecting individual barrels from each of the three vineyard blocks—Matthew, Morgan, and Mikayla—named after Gerald’s grandchildren. Opening with big black cherry and hints of anise, this powerfully rich wine has flavors of ripe red fruit, cassis, white chocolate and spice; and a massive, yet velvety and refined, tannin structure, along with nuances of toasty oak and vanillin characters. Enjoy now or cellar 7 to 10 years.

California’s Shenandoah Valley has long been recognized as one of the finest locations for growing the Zinfandel grape. At Stonehouse Vineyards & Winery, the age-old craft of winemaking is used to produce wines that reflect the grapes and soils in the heart of the Sierra Foothills.
Dusty berry and black cherry aromas, with a touch of white pepper, entice the most discerning oenophile to quickly tilt the glass. An unmatched richness of massive blackberry and spice flavors follow, perfectly balanced by a soft backbone of silky tannin structure and multi-faceted cocoa and berry fruit nuances. This unforgettable experience comes to a drawn out conclusion with vanilla-spice and smoky oak flavors that linger on the back of the palate.
