Specializes in small lots of world-class Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon from the Livermore Valley.
While based in Livermore, Steven Kent sources fruit from Bates Ranch, located in the southeast corner of the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA. This site produces wine with black fruit character, austerity in youth, and an acid-driven finish.
Also produces méthode champenoise Pinot Noir from the Santa Cruz Mountains.
The Livermore Valley, with its warm days and windswept hillsides that drop temperatures by 50 degrees overnight, is considered one of the finest places in the world to grow Cabernet Franc.
