2008 Proprietary Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes

Whipped black fruits, cedar planks and copper coins balance atop a sublime orange citrus. Give this wine some air to unlock cocoa, pistachio liqueur, young blackberries and creamy vanilla. Violets float through in the waning moments. Silky tannins melt into a lasting and focused finish. Intense and voluptuous, without any notion of intruding size or pushiness.
