Mise en Place is a French culinary phrase which means “everything in its place.” We chose this name to reflect the preparation and diligence exercised in the vineyards and winery in order to create a textbook example of this noble variety.

Hand-harvested from Vyborny Vineyard, a superbly mature and well-drained Cabernet Sauvignon site on the rocky, east-side of Oakville next door to Screaming Eagle.

2019 is a standout vintage. A long, warm summer saw very few extreme heat events, allowing the vines to progress at a perfect pace. At the end of the growing season, the weather was mild, which preserved freshness and finesse in the fruit.

Our Vision
The concept of “mise en place” comes to life in this wine where every aroma, every flavor, every texture is truly in its place. By using slow, gentle methods like hand harvesting and hand sorting, along with aging in French Oak barrels, we designed this wine to show restraint, a quality that translates into a taste experience that reveals rather than overpowers.

— Abigail Horstman, Winemaker
