Dr. Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Dr. Crane vineyard. Elegant. Tobacco, dry tannins- red plums, red currants. Wine needs a few years and will be great with age for up to 15yr.

Wonderful restrained yet expressive style of pencil lead and black currant. 👌🏼

Pronounced intensity aromas and flavors but showing a little #va #volatile acidity. 2017 was not kind.

Mineral and earthy tertiaries. 2016 is Still very much a baby.

Herbal aromas (Sage, thyme and bay leaf) tertiary aromas of meat, Smokey grit. Authenticity #purecab

Black currant and minerally. Our stash.

A decent Cab Sauv from the Estate Salvestrin specifically out of the Dr. Crane Vinyard in St. Helena, Napa. It’s composed of 83% Cab Sauv, 10% Merlot, and 7% Cab Sauv. It’s deep and intense of baked dark cherry on the nose, great texture on the palate and pretty silky mouthfeel. Tannins are structured and smooth. Great overall. It can age beautifully!

Subdued purple fruits, hints of oak and tobacco, smooth mid palate finish.

Smooth, complex, good aftertaste, great flavor, soft tannins

Dark plum/prune notes with some chocolate and tobacco notes at the back end. Smooth.
