Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price: $26.00 per bottle

Description: A touch bolder in body and flavor than our previous vintage, the 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon was aged almost a full 2 years in oak barrels. We blended 12.5% Syrah with the Cabernet to add dark cherry and blackberry nuances and the resulting wine has notes of coffee and chocolate because of this blend. This vintage will age for more than 5 years to come, and has ample tannin to soften so that the wine will display more jam and currant flavors as it ages. A wine of such supple and aged characters such as our 2003 Cabernet should be decanted for at least 15 minutes before serving.
