"The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is fabulous. It shows all the tannic grip, structure, and energy that is typical of this site, but without the imposing heft of bigger vintages like 2021 or 2023. I find its balance absolutely exquisite." of

This year commemorates the 25th anniversary of purchasing our Sonoma estate in the Mayacamas Mountain Range–a time capsule etched with a spectrum of life’s greatest achievements and challenging obstacles, each moment embraced with perseverance and dedication.

The vineyard has become our timekeeper, a friend that measures the years and keeps us company through each new chapter. As the vineyard reaches milestones, we also recognize changes within our vineyard family. Members of our dedicated team have raised their families on this land, and some have cultivated new expertise in their roles, all while tending to the estate.

The vineyard has been a steady witness, and our estate Cabernet Sauvignon helps us celebrate it all. True to its lineage, our 2022 vintage displays remarkable poise and presence — a wine we will reach for in celebration of the past and with excitement for the future.

We will be releasing our 2022 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon next Wednesday, September 10th, 2025. If you wish to receive this offer, please join our mailing list at https://allocations.cornellvineyards.com/join.

Courtship encapsulates the union of winemaker and vineyard—a dance throughout the seasons—resulting in a wine that tells this tale of collaboration, surrender, and supreme beauty.

The 2022 Courtship is a lush and vibrant expression of our estate’s bountiful young vines, a wonderful companion for summer gatherings. Showcasing energetic, bright fruit and smooth tannins, this Cabernet is rewarding in its youth and has become a wine we reach for again and again.

This wine is available directly from our estate, as well as with select wine shops and restaurants we’ve chosen to partner with across the country. DM us to place an order or find the wine near you.
