The Dos Lagos Vineyards are nestled in the hills of the
Atlas Peak AVA in Napa, California.
A 22 acre property,
there are 4 acres of premium Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.
The altitude is approximately 1,650 feet. A rocky terroir,
the volcanic rock is called "tuff." The vines are planted
partially on the hillsides, sloping down to the two lakes.
The vines are exposed to hot summer days and cool
nights. The coastal fog reaches the top of the
vineyard. This special climate provides a long growing
season, and harvest is generally mid to late October. The
grapes are picked late as well in order to intensify
their flavors, brought through the skins. These are
truly ideal ripening conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon!
Hector Lopez is our vineyard manager. Bob Foley, known as
"King of Cab" is the Winemaker for Dos Lagos Vineyards.
