Cabernet Sauvignon from North Coast, California

Winemaker Notes

Aromas of fresh blackberry juice and black cherries laced with brown sugar. The texture is velvety smooth, and the wine is packed with generous fruit. Flavors of ripe black cherries and blackberries are complemented by intriguing hints of pencil lead shavings, roasted coffee beans and the bark of cedar. This is a massive wine that still holds its balance with graceful acid and tannin through the finish.

Wine Enthusiast – 95 Points

This dense, rich, almost chewy wine grown on hillsides strewn with obsidian is packed with delicious black fruits, dark chocolate, mint and a hint of sage. All these flavors fill out the smooth but firm frame of soft tannins. Having aged in 75% new Hungarian barrels. Cellar Selection.

Food Pairing

Pairs well with spiced tuna with saffron and Israeli couscous, grilled pork tenderloin with wild rice pilaf, lamb chops with spring peas, or hangar steak with asparagus salad, as well as dark chocolate cake, truffles, or mousse.
