Nickel & Nickel
John C. Sullenger Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Blueberries leap out of glass with black licorice, violets, dark currants, loamy soils, vanilla & caramel. Dry, sticky, meaty, chewy M+ tannins, dark currants, dark chocolate, mocha powder, vanilla, caramel, blackberries, black cherries, blueberries, black raspberries, bright violets, grippy, gritty volcanic minerals, a good level of spices, warm, semi-sweet dark, soils, solid acidity with a ripe, round, lush, juicy fruit finish. Barrel tasted the 2016 vintage at the Nickel & Nickel. Photos of Sofia relaxing in the cellar and attendees enjoying lunch.

Sep 1st, 2021This is one of my favorite Nickel Nickel’s wines. I am part of their Cabernet Wine Club & by the timeI called to order more they were sold out. Much better than previous years. Don’t be scared of the price because it is worth every penny. Very bold & dark Cabernet!
