DRY CREEK CABERNET SAUVIGNON
The Dry Creek Valley is an undiscovered gem, producing some of the finest Cabernet Sauvignon in California. Primarily known for Zinfandel, the valley has almost as much Cabernet Sauvignon planted. This lush and elegant Cabernet Sauvignon initially displays aromas of plum, cranberry, and black truffle, followed by nutmeg, black pepper and thyme. A first taste of the full-bodied wine reveals flavors of black cherry, black currant and espresso. Hints of florals and fine leather bolster its richness, while firm tannins provide structure. The broad palate and soft edges make this Cabernet approachable in its youth while also perfect for aging.
Tasting Notes
Black violet colour. Aromas and flavours of grilled cherries, hints of jamon iberico, tobacco, and hints of mint with a lightly tannic, crisp, dryish medium-to-full body and a warming, medium-length finish with suggestions of plum preserves, black forest cake and graphite with moderate oak flavour. A taut but willing Cabernet Sauvignon; decant or cellar to fully reveal its complexities.
