Owl Ridge Wines
Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon
Cellar tracker shows to drink by 2015. If well stored I would extend that to at least 2018. Deep red, powerful, slightly dry.

Jul 10th, 2018Dark red with jammy fruit aromas, and some sweet spices. On the palate blackberry and raspberry flavors with cinnamon and vanilla spices. Grainy tannins were noted on the finish which had some awkward oak on the ending. Tasting Sample.

Aug 23rd, 2016The new 2013 vintage bottle drinks almost nothing like the '11 and '12 Alexander Valley Cabs. A much more cedar woody nose, and green pepper, dark cherry and tart black berry and a silk mouth feel, medium body, and a woody finish. Not bad, but still my heart is with AV. The new TYTO red blend on the other hand... outrageous.

Jan 13th, 2018Delicious and very enjoyable. Fruit forward Sonama Cab which was very much bordeaux style. It was slightly jammy with spice, oak, blueberry, plum, cassis, and mix of red/black fruit.

Jan 21st, 2017Very enjoyable. Light for a Cali Cab but with good fruit and a touch of acid
