Blackberry, currant and plum lead to seductive flavors of cedar box and summer savory. The tannins are mouthfilling and luxurious in the way that only mountain fruit can achieve. The balance is precise, offering enough tension to intrigue the senses and welcoming you to another sip. The acid that so elegantly frames the richness of this wine will allow it to age gracefully and completely. Drink early and often but be sure to lay down enough to appreciate its progression for the next 10 25 years.

Pretty cassis, red currants, tobacco, and damp earth notes define the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, a classic, medium-bodied, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon from this team. It has fine tannins, a good sense of acidity, and outstanding length.
