Bill and Dawnie Dyer are no strangers to the California wine scene: Bill spent 20 years with Sterling Vineyards and has consulted at Miramar Torres Estate in the Russian River Valley, Sodaro Winery and Frogs’ Leap Winery in Napa Valley, as well as Church & State Winery and Burrowing Owl Vineyards in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley; Dawnie Dyer spent 25 years as the winemaker at Domaine Chandon as well as making the first 8 vintages at Sodaro. Between them, Bill and and Dawnie have degrees in Biology, Enology and Philosophy. They planted the 2.3-hectare Dyer Vineyard on Diamond Mountain in 1993, producing the first vintage in 1996. The Dyer wines are the ultimate expression of the Diamond Mountain's volcanic soils.
The 2018 Dyer Vineyard Diamond Mountain Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot, aged for 22 months in French oak barrels. Aromas of cassis, plums, violets combine with a savory note of cedar and new French oak. The palate is rich and concentrated with loads of soft tannins and vibrant acidity with a long, complex finish. Drink now or age for another 10+ years. An exemplary Diamond Mountain Cab.
