Outward Description

Massa Vineyard (formerly Durney) is located in the remote highlands of Carmel Valley and sits at 1500 feet in elevation, overlooking the hills of the remote Cachagua region. Massa's first Cabernet Sauvignon vines were planted on their own roots in 1968 by the Durney family. We are lucky to source our fruit from this original 1968 block and in 2023, we also sourced a small amount from nearby block planted in '71. The vineyard has been farmed using organic practices from the start, and received its organic certification in the 1980s. The ‘68 vines are trained with a unique quadrilateral cordon and are own rooted, dry farmed, and planted in sandy loam and granitic soils.

With no new oak influence, our Massa Cabernet is our ode to the old-school Cabs of California. Our 2023 Cab from this site carries a robust bouquet of aromatics with well-integrated tannins to provide body and structure. Brambly red and black fruits, notes of leather, cedar, and herbaceousness bounce from the glass, while integrated acidity and soft tannins complete the palate. This is a ready-to-drink Cabernet for any occasion—with or without food.
