The 2021 One Stone Cabernet Sauvignon offers a rich aroma profile of cherry and cassis with varietal hints of tobacco and olive. A deep, supple palate presents layered flavors of plum, black cherry and black currant underpinned by notes of mocha, cedar, cola and vanilla spice. Smooth,sweet tannins unfold into a lusciously rounded finish.
The rich yet approachable character of the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is a fine match for ground beef tacos, barbecued chicken, braised short ribs and lamb chops with rosemary butter.

Tasting Panel Review - Rated 92:
Amanda Wittstrom-Higgins, executive VP at Ancient Peaks Winery, is also president and founder of Dream Big Darling, a nonprofit that aims to mentor and inspire the next generation of women leaders in the wine and spirits industry; five dollars from every case sold of this blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 4% Petit Verdot is donated to that organization. Aged 16 months in French and American oak, it’s well crafted and generous, with broad strokes of blackberry preserves, dark chocolate, espresso, and cedar encased in a silky texture
Wine Enthusiast Review - Rated 91:
Not only does this bottling raise money for the women empowerment group Dream Big Darling, it also sings quite loudly in this vintage. Crisp aromas of red cherry and cranberry are dusted with cinnamon and slate on the nose. The palate is tense and fresh, offering full red fruit alongside ample black tea and spice flavors.
