The top dog. The full spectrum of what Cabernet Sauvignon can be - earthy, mineral, herbal, beautifully ripe fruit, all held together with structure and bright acid. #2 pencil shavings and currants falling into a field of African violets. Redwood tips and fall breezes. This is the Cab Sauv we want to exist in the world - contemporary luxury without sacrificing complexity or soul.
TASTING NOTES
