## About this wine

Pebble Lane is an estate-grown brand produced under the stewardship of Scheid Family Wines, founded in 1972 in Monterey County, California. Created in partnership with the Landry's hospitality group, the wine is crafted specifically to complement high-end dining and steakhouse menus. The estate vineyards are located in the southernmost reaches of Monterey County, where cool marine air from Monterey Bay travels down the Salinas Valley to lengthen grape hang-time. The winery operates with a commitment to environmental sustainability, operating fully on renewable energy generated by an on-site wind turbine.

## Interesting facts

- Processed in a facility powered 100% by renewable energy from an on-site 400-foot wind turbine.
- Created as a dedicated partnership program tailored directly for steakhouse dining.
- Sourced from certified sustainable vineyards in the cool-climate Monterey AVA.

## Food pairing

The pronounced tannins and medium-to-full body of this Cabernet Sauvignon align perfectly with rich, protein-dense red meats. The fats and proteins in the food soften the tannic astringency on the palate, allowing the lush dark fruit characteristics and oak nuances to shine.

## Wine making process

Grapes are harvested from sustainably farmed estate vineyards certified by CSWA, GLOBAL G.A.P., and BRC. Following destemming and gentle crushing, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to emphasize pure varietal fruit expression. The wine undergoes 12 months of maturation in a combination of American and French oak barrels, balancing dark fruit characters with integrated oak structure prior to bottling.
