2019 Byrd Vineyard 'Reserve' Cabernet Sauvignon Mendocino County
A head-turner from the rugged wilds of Mendocino, the 2019 ‘Reserve’ is a study in finesse and power. Hibiscus tea, raspberry coulis, and a flicker of tamarind paste lead the charge, wrapped in cedar spice and dark chocolate richness. The structure is formidable, yet lifted—thanks to fruit purity and a deft hand in the cellar. A true original, this is Byrd’s boldest statement yet, crafted for collectors and Cabernet lovers alike.

Perched at 2,400 feet in the far reaches of the Mayacamas, Byrd Vineyard is redefining California Cabernet. These are the state’s highest-elevation vines—soaring above the fog line in red volcanic soils with extraordinary clarity of fruit and purity of flavor. With 150-day hang times and cool, sun-drenched days, Byrd's mountain estate yields wines of vivid acidity, soft tannins, and bold, elegant intensity. This is extreme farming in one of California’s most remote and remarkable terroirs. The result? A tiny fraction of the vintage, crafted with precision and lifted by altitude. Taste Cabernet from the best California wine region you’ve never heard of.
