2015 John Anthony Coombsville Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Tasting Notes:
"Our most popular single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon continues to prove itself worthy of its status. Black fruits and savory secondary flavors continue to characterize the wine’s aromas. It is a compactly built wine, having experienced stress in the vineyard through dry farming and head pruning. Its tannins are polished and there is a vibrant personality to the wine unlike any other in our portfolio. Wild berries, plums and dark pitted fruits combine for an array of flavors that are followed by herbs de Provence, loamy minerality and umami."
