Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Description

Deep ruby color. On the nose, black plum, blackberry, fig, and ripe cherry, framed by toasted oak and caramel. A hint of dried herb and floral notes. Concentrated fruit flavors and integrated tannins introduce a rich, full-body structure. Sweet fruit is balanced with acidity and savory notes of leather and wet stone, ending with a lengthy finish of dark berry, baking spice, and mocha.

A polished and frankly toasty style, with a cocoa note draped over a core of plum sauce and steeped black cherry fruit flavors. Long and fine-grained through the finish, with a melted licorice element checking in along the way. For the fruit-loving crowd. Drink now through 2032. 11,000 cases made.
