Like the loom that weaves individual threads into a cloth, wine is a myriad of interactions and connections that combine to create the whole. However, no two bolts of cloth are the same, such as with wine. Each year teaches wine growers something new about the land, the people and the grapes grown. This is an incredible value in the world of high end Cabernet Sauvignon made by Chiron - please ask us for the source because we cannot reveal it online.
According to Greek lore, Chiron was the revered teacher of culture and science, laying the foundation for a healthy society. Chiron's approach to making wine parallels this link between nature and culture. Bobby Moy, co-founder and winemaker, and his partner and co-founder Mark McCoy (who are also Father & Son - Mark is dad), select ideal vineyard sites and apply both art and science in their winemaking. They find these vineyards through relationships with passionate farmers who share their love of living soils to grow the best possible grapes. In the winery Bobby & Mark foster the wine, using minimal intervention, to create wine that best expresses the vineyards. They prefer the term, winegrowing, to describe this approach to making wine. In 2015 Bobby & Mark made a commitment to the CHIRON concept to begin to share their passion with the people around them who love exploring nature, cultures, cuisines, and provocative wines.

Deep purple in color with a beautiful nose of baked spices and blueberry which slowly unfold to reveal a vibrant black fruit core of ripe plums, boysenberries and black fruits with hints of mocha, oak, and lavender. Full-bodied with sweet tannins and a seamless long finish with a hint of minerals.
