Nickel and Nickel Winery is all about single varietal, single vineyard wines and the inaugural Fog Break Vineyard is a beautiful Cabernet from the folks at Far Niente. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.

97 Points James Suckling: "Outstanding balance and complexity from the beginning that showcases concentrated black fruits and purple flowers with plenty of spices and subtle yet harmonious toast and cedar aromas. Intense graphite and stony minerality, too. Full- to medium-bodied on the mid-palate with delightful acidity that gives this wonderful crunchiness. Fine-grained juicy tannins. Precisely focused wine that is colorful and sound. Beautiful length, too. Already so drinkable now but will age gracefully, especially for Atlas Peak."

Sitting just above the fog line, sheltered from the valley breezes, the Fog Break Vineyard distinct vineyard retains the heat from the early morning sun throughout the day and the additional warmth, paired with the vineyard’s shallow iron-rich soils, combine to create a distinctive flavor profile that is concentrated, complex and classically structured.
