Winemaking Notes: The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon tantalizes with aromas of black cherry, red berry jam, and cranberry while notes of molasses, pink peppercorn, and toffee complement and enrich nose. On the palate, the tannin texture is soft and velvety allowing the flavors of black plum, prune, and blackberry to take center stage while accents of cocoa nib and nutmeg add intrigue. The elegant finish lingers adding to the enjoyment. This wine may be enjoyed now and will age gracefully for 10+ years.
