Founded by industry veterans Mai Errazuriz and her husband Rodrigo Soto, Far Mountain firmly believes that the best wines in the world can be produced from remote sites scattered throughout the mountains of the Sonoma Valley. Their Fission Cab comes entirely from the certified organic, old, and dry-farmed Alta Vista Vineyard, high up on Moon Mountain.

Planted in 1971, these 50+ year-old vines give us small and thick-skinned Cabernet berries that are just bursting with flavor. It's one of the great Mountain-Grown California Cab values out there, and we give it 2 thumbs up!

Vinous Media: 'The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Fission is a gorgeous wine from Mai Errazuriz and Rodrigo Soto. Ample and deep, the 2021 possesses tons of complexity from the very first taste. Brambly overtones meld into leather, cedar, tobacco and dried herbs. Brooding tannins wrap it all together. The Fission emerges from dry-farmed vines planted on St. George rootstock at Alta Vista Gold Ranch on Moon Mountain. The old-vine field selection is believed to include some Cabernet Franc.'

Decanter: 'An exemplary mountain Cabernet Sauvignon from the team at Far Mountain, this wine is sourced from the 50-year-old, dry-farmed vines at Alta Vista Vineyard in Sonoma's Moon Mountain District. The volcanic soils and gnarled head-trained vines make for a dramatic, elegant wine: Pine needles and bay leaf frame wild mountain berries and mineral tones of pencil lead and iron. The palate shows sappy tart blackberries, muddled mint leaves, and graphite streaks across the flavour profile, finishing with fresh chopped herbs and white pepper—a fresh, invigorating Cabernet from Sonoma showing so much respect for the site.'
