B.R. Cohn
Olive Hill Estate Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon
Sonoma Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
Founded by Bruce Cohn in 1984, Winery is located in the heart of Sonoma, surrounded by a 100-acre Olive Hill Vineyard where the soil is warmed by underground natural hot springs. A big Cab, aromas of ripe black fruits with intoxicating earthy tones. On the palate blackberry and ripe blueberry flavors with tobacco and bits of cacao surrounded by big firm tannins, lingering finish ending with rich fruit, oak and earthy character.

It's Friday!
It is time for my Cabernet fix, isn't it?
Dark ruby in color with a ruby rim.
Strong nose of blackberries, cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, earth, leather, green pepper, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, spices and black pepper. Nice and complex.
Full bodied, big and bold, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, vanilla, cloves, earth, leather, green pepper, chocolates, licorice, tobacco, herbs, spices, black pepper and pencil lead.
Long finish with firm tannins and peppercorn.
What a Great Cabernet from Sonoma County, California.
Beautiful nose. Balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food.
Complex, interesting and smooth.
Drinking nicely now and will improve with time.
This Single Vineyard is delightful and delicious.
Aged for 24 months in French oak barrels.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

Too young still, out has plenty of potential. Plenty of dark fruit, cassis and violets. Grippy tannins and enough acidity to balance this out.

Really enjoyed this one, although alcohol content 15.7. Berry and cherry notes with vanilla and peppercorn.
