2023 Navigator Wines
California
Cabernet Sauvignon

On the nose, this wine exudes a rich bouquet of dark fruits, prominently featuring blackcurrant, black cherry, and ripe plums. These primary aromas are elegantly complemented by secondary notes of cedar, tobacco, and a hint of dark chocolate, which add depth and complexity to the olfactory experience.

Subtle undertones of eucalyptus and black pepper provide a refreshing lift. The palate is robust and full-bodied, mirroring the aromatic complexity with a rich tapestry of flavors.
