Brassfield Estate Winery Unveils KENDRA -- A Landmark Cabernet Sauvignon Celebrating Family, Legacy, and the High Valley AVA

A 25th Anniversary Release from Lake County's Acclaimed Estate Vineyards and Volcanic Soils

CLEARLAKE OAKS, Calif., Sept. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Brassfield Estate Winery, recognized as one of the most successful rising voices in Northern California, proudly announces the debut of KENDRA, a limited-release Cabernet Sauvignon crafted exclusively from the High Valley AVA's most exceptional vineyard blocks. Representing the pinnacle of Brassfield's estate vineyards, KENDRA embodies 25 years of winemaking and the vision of Founder Jerry Brassfield.

Named for his youngest daughter, Kendra Brassfield, this Cabernet Sauvignon is both a personal tribute and a benchmark expression of terroir. First produced in 2011 in tiny quantities for family and friends, KENDRA now makes its public debut with the 2021 vintage — a milestone release coinciding with Brassfield Estate Winery's 25th anniversary.

"KENDRA captures the true spirit of Brassfield — a wine shaped by pride, passion, and purpose," says Founder Jerry Brassfield. "When I first set foot on High Serenity Ranch in 1973, I knew these volcanic soils could produce something extraordinary. With this release, that dream comes full circle."

"It is an honor to have my name on such a meaningful wine," adds Kendra Brassfield. "This release embodies both my father's vision and the spirit of our family. Launching KENDRA on my birthday, in the year we celebrate 25 years of the estate, feels like the perfect convergence of legacy and new beginnings."

Spanning almost 5,000 acres, Brassfield Estate is one of Lake County's most distinctive high-elevation vineyards, lying within the rare top 1% of vineyard altitudes worldwide. The 2021 KENDRA is a blend of primarily Cabernet Sauvignon, rounded out with Malbec and Petit Verdot, from the estate's best vineyard plots, delivering intensity, structure, and finesse while reflecting the precision of sustainable farming and meticulous winemaking.

Positioned as the "halo" of the Brassfield portfolio, KENDRA embodies the estate's unwavering pursuit of excellence and its commitment to honoring land, legacy, and family.

The 2021 KENDRA ($250) will be available in limited release this fall, offering fine wine collectors and enthusiasts a rare opportunity to experience the ultimate expression of the High Valley AVA.
