Aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels, this wine reflects Robert Goyette’s profound connection to the Chalk Hill AVA.
Each sip unveils a symphony of flavors: juicy black fruits intertwine with subtle spices and earthy undertones, all elegantly framed by velvety tannins. The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon of remarkable depth, capturing the essence of Chalk Hill’s terroir while offering exceptional value.

“The Ludus 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon from Chalk Hill AVA opens with elegant notes ripe blackberries, black cherries, subtle hints of cedar, tobacco, graham crackers, and a volcanic minerality. On the palate, the wine has flavors of cassis, plum, freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, and black olives, complemented by a touch of baking spices. The finish is long and lingering and leaves a lasting impression.”
