From the bottle:

Every mother knows that if you give a child dirt, water and a sunny day, you will have a mud pie. It is an innate quality and need of mankind to work the earth with his hands.

The remarkable wine growers of Mendocino County comprise a unique collection of small, family-owned and carefully tended vineyards that truly exhibit this creative need to work the land and craft world class wines. Mud Pie wines are committed to sourcing and working with these dedicated artisans. Mud Pie Cabernet Sauvignon is an endearing tribute to the best Mendocino County has to offer.

Cellared & Bottled by DNA Vineyards
14.5% Alcohol

The 2016 Mud Pie Cabernet Sauvignon begins with pleasing aromas of black cherry, cedar, spice, vanilla, mint and more.

This is a structured, balanced and tasty Cab that is ripe and rich in the mouth. It features dark berry fruit, nice oaky spice notes, a smooth mouthfeel and touches of vanilla.

It ends dry, grippy and long with lasting juicy fruit, cola and some oaky spice notes. This is a crowd-pleaser!
