Tasting Panel
Made with sustainably grown grapes from a single vineyard, this wine exudes intriguing aromas of strawberry and cinnamon. It shows dignity through its layers of flavor: expressive notes of spiced cedar, new leather, pencil shavings, and tilled soil flow through powdered tannins. The finish of black cherries soaked in roasted coffee is dreamy.
A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbecand Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.
