Why does California make such delicious Cabernet Sauvignon? Simple answer, because they can, so shut up and just enjoy the ride. Chocolate, black cherry and vanilla aromas lure you into the glass for that first sip – and it does not disappoint. Purity of fruit, cassis, chalky tannins, black raspberry all with a mineral sensation driving it all together is one lush and delicious package – it’s the beauty of what 28 year old vines can do.
