In 1980 Robert Mark Kamen, who went on to write The Karate Kid, sold his first screenplay and bought a rugged, volcanic stretch of the Mayacamas Mountains on the Sonoma side of Mount Veeder. Then he went looking for the man who had grown the marijuana he and his friends were smoking. That man was Phil Coturri, and Kamen hired him to farm the land.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoturri became one of the leading figures in California organic and biodynamic viticulture, and Kamen has been his showcase ever since. Only a fraction of the large, wild property is planted, on steep slopes of fractured volcanic rock in what is now the Moon Mountain District. The vineyard was replanted in 1996 after a fire, it is certified organic, and cover crops share the rows with the vines for half the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCabernet Sauvignon is the flagship. It's joined by Syrah, Grenache, Sauvignon Blanc and Writer's Block, a red blend. Expect true mountain wines: dark-fruited, firmly built and worth cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"kamen-cabernet-sauvignon-2022-750ml","title":"Kamen, Cabernet Sauvignon, 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen a screenwriter who created Karate Kid and Taken takes wine seriously, you get Kamen. Robert Kamen bought this rugged Mayacamas Mountains property above Sonoma in 1980, after selling his first script; the estate now sits in the Moon Mountain District, at 1100 to 1450 feet, farmed organically. The 2022 is estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon, classic mountain Napa-Sonoma in profile: black-fruit dense, structured by the kind of fine, chewy tannins only altitude and rocky volcanic soils deliver. With air it opens into cedar, leather and dried herbs, the savory tertiary notes already beginning to peek through. A serious, age-worthy mountain Cab.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winebow [WBW]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45814284124217,"sku":"NYC-WBW-`30341366`-050726-3","price":153.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Kamen-Cabernet-Sauvignon-2022-Red-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York.jpg?v=1778251770"},{"product_id":"kamen-wirters-block-2022-750ml","title":"Kamen, Writers Block Red Blend, 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eWriter's Block is a blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah from screenwriter Robert Kamen's mountain estate.
