Lucas & Lewellen
Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, USA
Slightly fruity for a Cab. Must be Syrah grapes. Notes of Blackberry, currants, and plum.

2009 Estate Vineyards cabernet sauvignon from Lucas & Lewellen got for a steal at $15.
Major hallmarks of cab sauv with a dark ruby core and a ruby rim, bright red fruit on the nose along with sweet oak and sweet vegetal notes. The palate has more blueberry fruit than I was expecting, but still quite a bit of tannins and for an 8 year old wine it might be able to go for another 8 years. Fantastic value.

Dark fruit, well balanced. Perfect with a steak and vegetables!

Nice, not as heavy as some cabs. Pleasant red and black fruit prominence with a good finish. This is a 2014 vintage.

Incorrectly identified by delectable as a Chardonnay but is actually a cab.
