Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California

Winemaker Notes

Ripe, dark aromas of plum, blackberry, and black cherry all intermingle with notes of spice, black licorice, and baked pie crust. A rich, dense palate finds more blackberry and cassis flavors on the front, backed by spice, black tea, and cedar, punctuated by hints of vanilla and savory pastry. Plush, soft tannins frame this wine to give it a harmonious balance and luxurious length.

Wine Spectator – 93 Points

Hyperripe, with tiers of cassis, plum puree and blackberry paste supported by deftly inlaid mocha, tobacco and violet notes. The polished finish lets a subtle iron twinge creep in amid the lush fruit, giving this a needed counterpoint. Obvious in style, but will have fans for sure. Drink now through 2034.

Food Pairing

Pairs well with beef, lamb, venison, poultry, and mature and hard cheeses.
