WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
Wonderfully layered, this vintage of our iconic Cabernet starts with aromas of blueberry, blackberry, red cherry and pomegranate. Additional time in the glass reveals notes of tobacco leaf, vanilla bean and minerality in this full-bodied stunner. Bold, well-rounded tannins add a lovely texture across the lingering, flavorful finish.
TASTING NOTES:
The aromas provide immediate appeal, with notes of raspberry, mocha, sweet spice, dried herb and currant. The palate is chock-full of ripe, plump, flavorful fruit and plentiful barrel accents, with tannins so soft you might think it were Merlot. It’s a sure-fire crowd-pleaser.
