Description
Our Estate Grown Wetmore Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is named after one of the Livermore Valley’s most prominent pioneers, California’s first agricultural commissioner renowned for planting vine cuttings from many of Bordeaux’s top Châteaux in the temperate Livermore Valley in the 1880s. The descendants of vines Wetmore brought from France thrive today in the gravelly loam soils of our certifi ed sustainable estate vineyards between the Arroyo del Valle and the Arroyo Mocho, streams fl owing from the southern hills of the Livermore Valley.
