If Abreu has a core, it is undoubtedly Madrona Ranch. It was the first property David fell for, and developed, back in the 1980s. The canyons and curves that snake through the site, the soils that range from red Aiken to white tufa to dark clay and rocks—it’s a magical site. Harvest picks are meticulous, often spanning weeks, but the diversity makes for incredible complexity, and plenty of blending options. Madrona is a working ranch too. In fact, livestock have laid claim to more than their share of real estate. Cattle, goats, pigs, chickens—even honeybees, which live in one of the old barns on the property. “We tend the animals and leave the bees alone,” says David. “We do collect the honey though. We consider it fair rent.”
Coming from a site at the base of Spring Mountain, the 2019 Madrona Ranch is more medium to full-bodied and elegant, with an ultra-classic bouquet of assorted darker fruits, sage, leafy herbs, and sandalwood. I love its complexity, and it has power as well as elegance, followed by a gorgeous finish. It needs to be forgotten for 4-6 years and will cruise for over two decades - Jeb Dunnuck February 2023.
