Blended with 14% Merlot and aged 18 months in (50% new) French oak, winemaker Steven Urberg's newly released 2021 vintage is a teeth-grabber. Dusty cocoa tannins display an affinity with cedar, wet stone, blackberry, dried violets, and beetroot. Still in its youth, the wine shows much promise.

Winemaker Notes

The 2021 Scattered Peaks Cabernet Sauvignon is an intense inviting dark color profile on the appearance, the aromas are filled with bold black and red fruit notes. On the palate, expect a concentrated wine of dark fruits and bold influence of toasty oak. Plush flavors of black cherry, ripe plum and wild berry coupled with cassis, violet and dark cocoa flavor tones. The integrated tannin are velvety providing ample texture and ending with a lingering finish.
