Black currants, grilled sage, and crushed stone form a darkly enticing bouquet as the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon opens in the glass. This is surprisingly juicy and energetic in character, with racy wild berry offset by a tinge of sour citrus. It tapers off with a dramatic length and grippy tannins yet somehow leaves the mouth watering for more. Hints of cocoa and a twist of tangerine linger.
Black plum and violet aromas meet with toasted oak and cocoa dust on the nose of this bottling. There’s a chalky frame to the palate, where blackberry and woodspice flavors align.
