What to Expect

Cabenet Sauvignon: Originally of French origins, this versatile grape produces exceptional wines around the globe. It's usually medium to full bodied with a fine structure that supports black and red fruit flavors with typical notes of olive, chili and herbs that add complexity.

Winemakers Notes

Winemaker’s Notes
With a very dark garnet color, this wine offers ripe, opulent black cherry fruit, for which our Sonoma County Cabs are known. The cooler vintage provided us a wine with finesse, elegance and intoxicating aromatics, akin to a Bordeaux from the Medoc. The nose is filled with brown sugar and blackberry aromas topped with coconut and vanilla from the oak regime. The blackberry continues on the palate and carries through to the finish. This wine will definitely improve with age; however, it is incredibly “drinkable” now and hints at being an earlier maturing wine.

oak soaked fruit; lacked balance; may have been a bad bottle; but found it undrinkable

[$17] jammy blackberry on the nose and palate; mild, integarated tannins; one of the better cabs for <$20 available

Our Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon is a dark red color with dusty and ripe blackberry qualities. The flavor displays powerful black cherry fruit framed by good acidity. This wine should age and improve given its high color extraction, fruit complexities and acidity levels. It finishes only moderately astringent and will complement full flavored foods in its youth. Try this wine now with braised or grilled beef, hearty cheeses, or a leg of lamb. If cellared for four to eight years in good conditions, it will mellow and develop woodsy and chocolatey complexities.

One of the better years. I prefer the 2002, but my wife thinks the 2001 is a bit smoother...
