2023 Motif
Red Hills, Lake County
Cabernet Sauvignon
On the nose, this Cabernet exudes a complex bouquet of dark fruits like blackberry and plum, enhanced by a distinctive minerality and notes of espresso and dark chocolate, which add depth and intrigue.
The palate is full-bodied and powerful, with a core of ripe black cherry and cassis flavors, framed by firm, well-structured tannins.
Layers of spice, leather, and a hint of tobacco from the oak aging process contribute to a rich, textured mouthfeel.
