Mt. Oso Cabernet Sauvignon

Mt. Oso Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price: $20.00 per bottle

Description: Our Cabernet was batch fermented in small lots and then aged in French oak barrels for 24 months. Dark ruby-purple in color, our 2001 Mt. Oso Cabernet Sauvignon offers a classic cabernet nose, with black cherry, cedar and sandalwood aromas followed by subtle hints of clove and vanilla, finishing with a smoky mintiness. A robust and voluptuous wine with flavors of strawberry jam, pepper, spice, blackberry and cinnamon. A silky texture coats the palate, evolving rich essences of leather and earth that balance the up front fruit from the Mt. Oso soil. This is an extraordinary vintage that will be remembered. Hold one for 10 years if you can.
