碎石草原『Gravelly Meadow』有2公頃，果香較輕柔，卻凸顯出葡萄酒不可缺的豐富的礦物質風味，也有更多複雜的草藥類香氣，WS給予93分並建議為『極度推薦』品項。
Our second coolest micro-climate is our five-acre Gravelly Meadow vineyard. Originally a pre-historic river bed, this stony, gravelly soil drains rapidly and the vines struggle for moisture.
Gravelly Meadow is our lowest yielding vineyard. The wines are described as "earthy, cedary, jammy and ripe blackberry with a spicy expansive finish."
Wine Spectator：93 points（Highly Recommended）
Remarkably elegant, complex, ripe and concentrated, with a sweet plum and cherry accent to the spicy anise, cedar and light oak shadings. With its relatively mild tannins
Wine Advocate：91-93 points
Backward, well-built, tannic wines meant to last for two decades or more. I suspect they will be among the least flattering wines to taste when released. The dark ruby/purple-colored Gravelly Meadow Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits a nose of loamy, dusty earth intermingled with scents of jammy, ripe black fruits and oak, full body, and layers of flavor. Although young and unevolved, it displays exceptional promise if cellared for 7-8 years. As a fan of Diamond Creek Cabernet Sauvignons in the seventies and early eighties, . For that reason, I am happy to report that barrel samples of Diamond Creek's 1994s look to be the most reassuringly fine examples of this estate's Cabernets that I have tasted . Let's hope they put the wines into the bottle naturally, without excessive fining or filtering. Certainly the raw materials are very impressive.
