Breathe in the aromatic ripeness of black cherry, cassis and boysenberry. This full-bodied wine integrates an ample amount of ripe black fruit with vanilla, cinnamon spice, sweet tobacco and savory notes of leather with hints of cedar. The 2018 Cabernet Reserve is rich and complex wine supported by velvety soft smooth tannins, making this wine easy to drink upon release but will offer even more rewards after a few years in your cellar.
2021 San Francisco Chronicles Wine Competition (over 1000+wineries, over 5500+ wine entries): prestigious Sweepstake Award (Best Cabernet Sauvignon). Our estate Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc blocks were planted today. It took a lot of hard work and preparation.

About Us
Report
The 56 acre Big Oak Ranch perched on the east foothills of Morgan Hill is home to our developing vineyards. This ancient landslide estate is perfect for both red and white varietals due to its microclimate, rich soil, and high elevation. It is a perfect and picturesque setting for high quality grapes within the Central Coast AVA near the Silicon Valley.
The Team
Report
There's no such thing as a 'winemaker.' Wine makes itself. The key is to monitor the process every step of the way so that you make the best decisions to allow it to do its own transformation. Christian graduated with an oenology degree from the University in Dijon. He spent his youth in Beaune in the heart of Burgundy, and was exposed to the world of wine at a young age.
Red
Report
The Mila Grenache is an interesting red blend of two distinct Grenache noir grapes-West Paso Robles and Edna Valley. Spiced with a touch of cold and warm climate Syrah. The cuvee is named after one of Sofia's beautiful daughters. The 2018 was a slow and cool ripening vintage. Grenache generally offers a medium color red with a concentrated nose of black and red cherry fruit jam, black pepper and minty spice.
White
Report
This French style sparkling is fresh and crisp with some citrus notes as well as lots of creamy texture. Very elegant nose with hints of apple and warm bread with a lush and velvety mouth feel which exhibits minerality and vanilla. A beautiful blush color - this refined wine slowly reveals itself with velvety texture and mouth-filling flavors.
