WINEMAKER’S NOTES:
After the grapes were gently harvested, de-stemmed and crushed, the Cabernet Sauvignon fermented in stainless steel tanks through malolactic fermentation. Twelve months aging (45% new French oak), helped to marry the flavors and tannins. During blending, Tony looked to other complimentary varieties, like Petite Sirah adding to this beautiful Cabernet’s richness of character.
TASTING NOTES:
Irresistible aromas of rose petals and blueberry cobbler lead to ripe, supple silky tannins. Flavors of vibrant black cherry, candied blackberry, and red plum are complimented by notes of black currant and licorice, with a hint of coffee, dark chocolate and spice – all culminating into a lingering and delicious finish.
