Winery Review:
Blended from premier central coast vineyards, our Cabernet Sauvignon is polished and approachable. Elegant, juicy flavors of berry cobbler followed by mocha and wood spice unite, layer by layer to form a rich full-bodied wine with chalky, round tannins and a long finish. We suggest pairing with a rib eye with peppercorn sauce, or other heartier dishes and red meats.
Wine Folly:
Cabernet Sauvignon (p. 88) This one is all black current, some baking spice here maybe some graphite and gravel. Secondary notes are more on the nutty side. Toasted tobacco.
My Review:
This cab is on the restrained side. Really good balance in this bottle. The tannins are right where they should be but they don't take more of the spotlight than they should. The body is super full and balanced enough to allow secondary spice and nutty flavors to shine though.
