Winemaker Notes

True to its site, to 2020 '29 Estate' Cabernet Sauvignon opens with signature violets, lilacs and black currents. Full and dense upon entry and through the mid-palate, ths wine presents layers upon layers of fresh blueberries, black cassis and dark chocolate covered cherries. Deeply concentrated with long, drawnout fine-grained tannins that provide weight and structure. A viscous, velvety texture is delicately balanced by bright acidity that brings verve to a long, tenacious finish. Extremely limited production due to miniscule yields, this wine will lay down and age beauitifully over the next couple of decades.
