The name came about as a way to recognize the resilience and romance of California’s reputation for making Cabernet.  It also happens to be the singular form of the nickname of a legendary vessel docked outside the winemakers window in Boston’s harbor, admired for being well built and long-lasting. Hearty aromas of black cherries, plums and tobacco leaf with traces of fresh pepper and sweet spice. This wine is full-bodied but focused, like a firm handshake that leads into a big hug.
