Cabernet Sauvignon, Sonoma Valley

Cabernet Sauvignon, Sonoma Valley Wine Details
Price: $20.00 per bottle

Description: 2001 is clearly the best vintage since 1994. This Cabernet is a blend of 92% Cabernet sauvignon, and 8% Merlot. The wine is deep garnet with a purple edge, complex aromas with notes of blackberry, cherry, cassis, violets, mint, lavender and chocolate. The oak is beautifully integrated and not at all obvious. Full, supple entry coats the tongue, bright fruit mid-palate, chocolaty finish. The ripe chewy tannins indicate great aging potential with significant improvement over several years.
