94 Pts Decanter

Wonderful aromatic intensity with notes of cassis, cacao and anise that jump out of the glass upon the first sniff. Some rosemary and thyme also show up at the end. With a silky, juice-like texture, black and red fruits explode on the palate upon first sip and softened by Earl Grey tea on the finish.

Winemaker Notes

Intense aromas of ripe black cherry, graphite and blackberry interlace with a lovely violet floral note. The palate is inviting and well-balanced, exuding flavors of blueberries, cassis and boysenberry that are all beautifully interwoven with silky tannins from the French oak barrels. The dark fruit flavors and delicate acidity evolve beautifully in the glass and linger on the palate.

The dark fruit flavors, silky palate and beautiful structure make it a decadent wine for food pairing. This wine’s elegance, acidity and spice notes complement grilled or roasted dishes, such as coq au vin, lamb ragu or roasted salmon with miso. The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon’s earthiness even complements vegetarian dishes, such as roasted vegetables, mushroom risotto and ratatouille.
