The Insider Cabernet Sauvignon

From the Winemaker:

VARIETAL: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
APPELLATION: Paso Robles, CA
ALCOHOL: 14.5%

This Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon has a medium plus dark plum color. Boysenberry and huckleberries jump out of the glass immediately with a light dusting of clove and sandalwood. Then subtle grape tannin becomes evident followed by ripe cherry and cassis and ultimately baked by blueberry pie notes. The palate entry is quite balanced in its acidity and overall weight. The texture is silky, supple with a sappy core that folds gently into the soft tannin matrix and provides the platform for the fruit to display itself as the wine ages. Ripe bing cherry, subtle mocha and underlying exotic Tahitian vanilla envelop the soft, sexy and elegant finish with a careful balance between acidity and tannins.
