Laurel Glen Vineyard
Counterpoint Sonoma Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
Had this with dinner for my birthday. First cab from Sonoma Mountain I've had, and the wines that come,from this small place are age worthy and large. Cedar and florals on the nose and black tea. The pallet is lean, and tightly knit, dark purple and exhibiting notes of black plum, currant, tobacco leaf, and licorice, with a lingering finish and chewy tannins. It was definitely a wine in need of time, and made a great cabernet to pair with dinner.
