Reserve North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon
North Coast, California, USA
Deep Ruby color with aromas of dark fruits and herb notes, grapes sourced from the North Coast AVA, including Sonoma and Lake counties.. On the palate flavors of blackberry, currants and black cherry, with notes of herb pepper, cedar and vanilla notes. Fine grain tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, cedar and spice.

Took 3 hours to open up. Still a crowd pleaser.

This dark wine’s nose is bursting with blue fruit, violets, vanilla and clove. The palate is rich and layered with black currant and cherry, anise, pepper and oak spice. The tannins are smooth and the acidity is lip-smacking. The sip finishes long and fruity with a savory edge. It will pair nicely with steak, sausage and tomato sauce dishes.

Feb 25th, 2022Deep red color with aromas of dark red fruit and pepper spice. On the palate blackberry and cherry flavors with dried herb and spice. Dusty tannins carry to the medium finish ending with cacao and vanilla oak characteristics. Ok, but a bit harsh. Tasting Sample.

2015v. Dark violet. On the nose: blackberry, black cherries, rose, and black currants. On the palette, there's plenty of ripe dry black fruit, and brown sugar, vanilla, walnuts, and smoky cedar. Tannins are pretty soft for a young wine. Acidity at about a medium. Overall, a crowd pleasing wine with a lot of different flavor notes- but nothing distinctly cab jumps out. 14% ABV.
