2018 Cabernet Sauvignon WS Paso Robles

Our exciting Cabernet Sauvignon Winemaker’s Select blend is accompanied by Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot with a kiss of Syrah shows why Paso Robles is such a great place to grow these varietals. It emits aromas of ripe black cherry, black currant with tobacco leaf, cinnamon, spicy oak, vanilla with dry leather, and a hint of subtle purple flowers. Full-bodied upon entry with ripe black cherry, cassis, sweet oak, and spices from the blend of French and American new oak barrels with mid-palate highlights offering soft and lingering tannins. The finish is long with intellectual fruit, elegant oak, and a balanced structure, making it a ready-to-drink blend now that offers an excellent value in its category.
