2018 Cabernet Sauvignon
2018 Cabernet Sauvignon
An abundance of black fruits, spice, violets and minerals. Swirling brings up dried flowers, red currant and raspberry puree with black tea and hibiscus. The palate is open and dense at the same time conveying a sense of weightlessness. It has superfine tannins that coat the palate, with no hard edges and sweet fruit that lingers on the finish.

Incredible color was developed in the 2018’s leaving the wines with a plush feel and pure aromatics.
