The Montecillo vineyard was first planted in 1860, making it one of California's most historic sites — and Far Mountain dry-farms it organically on red, rocky volcanic soils at the northern end of the Mayacamas. That basalt gives the wine its signature: iron, graphite, and a rocky tannin structure that reads the geology straight off the hillside. Rodrigo Soto and Mai Errazuriz make this in a high-elevation, cool-climate style that prizes precision over power. This is a Cabernet to take seriously. Decant it now or tuck it away for the better part of a decade.
