Summer campfire, white pepper, and bramble berry on the nose.  Red cherry, cranberry and spiced tobacco leaf flavors.  Smooth and delicious.

​

This wine has a very slightly funky nose.  What does that mean?  It generally means that a wine’s aromas are less-immediately reminiscent of fruits and more like smoke, cedar, and tobacco.  Many wines that start out with a ‘funky nose’ quickly benefit from some exposure to air/oxygen to release the floral and fruity aromas.  That’s one reason to swirl or decant a red wine.

​

The 2019 Cab has a very warm and smooth mouth-feel, with noticeably soft tannins.   Smoky aromas redolent of a summer campfire, with hints of white pepper and bramble berry.  Flavor components feature red cherry and cranberry, grounded with subtle notes of spiced tobacco leaf.   This is a perfect food wine.
