The nose is complex and expressive, opening with aromas of ripe blackberry, cassis, and black cherry, layered with notes of violet, graphite, and dark chocolate, alongside subtle cedar and s weet spice from fine French oak. 

On the palate , it is full-bodied and structured, with firm yet polished tannins supporting a core of dark fruit—cassis, plum, and blackberry—complemented by nuances of espresso, vanilla bean, and a touch of dried herbs. Vibrant acidity brings balance and lift, ensuring the wine remains fresh despite its richness. The finish is long and powerful, lingering with flavors of black fruit, mocha, and savory spice. This Cabernet reflects the best of Sonoma County’s terroir, offering both approachability in its youth and the depth to age gracefully over the next decade or more.
