Drawn from Detert’s prized 'East Block' within To Kalon Vineyard, the 2022 Detert ‘East Block’ Cabernet Franc is a single-block estate wine that captures one of the property’s most distinctive and limited vineyard expressions. Shaped by the historic soils and unique microclimate of eastern Oakville, the site yields a remarkably precise and structured interpretation of Cabernet Franc. Farmed by the Garrett family in partnership with renowned viticulturist Mike Wolf and crafted by Tom Garrett, this small-production bottling reflects the transparency, pedigree, and vineyard character that have made Detert’s Cabernet Francs some of Napa Valley’s most compelling examples of the variety.

About Detert Family Vineyards:
Rooted in one of the most storied corners of To Kalon Vineyard, Detert Family Vineyards represents a rare intersection of Napa Valley heritage, family stewardship, and generational winemaking talent. For Tom Garrett, the connection is deeply personal—his family’s ties to To Kalon date back to 1954, when his grandmother purchased their portion of the vineyard for just $750 per acre. Raised among the vines alongside his brother John, Garrett developed an early passion for wine that evolved from garage-made Cabernet Franc into a celebrated career shaped at some of Napa Valley’s most iconic estates, including Turley Wine Cellars, Joseph Phelps Vineyards, Robert Mondavi Winery, and Revana Family Vineyard. Today, Garrett focuses exclusively on Detert and Dakota Shy, channeling decades of experience into wines that capture the pedigree, nuance, and singular character of this historic Oakville site.
