Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
The wine is a deep, dark red color with an herbal note on the nose to go along with the cheerful red fruit. I always like the chalkiness of Paso Cabs, but in this selection that effect is somewhat muted, shoved aside by that herbal note, which takes center stage on the palate. The effect of oak aging is plain, but not overdone. The freshness of the wine speaks to its youthful character and the tannins are firm. The chalky note makes itself more noticeable on the finish.

Dec 29th, 2020This kosher Cabernet Sauvignon hails from Paso Robles. It is made from organically grown grapes which were late-harvested and no sulfites were added. Aromas of blackberry, blueberry and boysenberry lead the way, with a light touch of oak and a dollop of that Paso earthiness. The palate is chalky and fruity, the tannins are toothy and the acidity is racy. Allow plenty of time for this wine to open up before pouring it - you’ll be glad you did.
