2016 Cabernet Sauvignon
$35.00
Layered, seductive aromatics fill the glass with black currant and ripe boysenberry laced with sweet vanilla, toasty oak, minerality, and hints of chocolate and coconut. Bright, mouthwatering acidity reveals vine-ripened black raspberry and dark cherry with traces of blueberry and mocha. Dusty tannins and integrating oak offer a gentle framework for the wine. As the flavors linger in the finish, a touch of Valrhona chocolate merges with the luscious berry essence.
Enjoy with a pairing of grilled New York strip steak topped with caramelized onions and Gorgonzola cheese, or spicy blueberry pork tenderloin served with roasted potatoes.
