2005 Cabernet Sauvignon
Sonoma County

This wine is definitely a sum of its parts. Each of the vineyards brings a unique characteristic to the blend. In the front palate and the nose, it is all Dry Creek Cabernet: bright fruit, hints of mineral, and supple tannins. The mid palate is where the Alexander Valley fruit shows its stuff: signature chalky, dusty tannins, lush mouth feel and ripe red fruit. The amazing intensity of the fruit is discernable from start to finish. The finely grained tannins not only complement the structure of the other vineyards, but give the wine its back bone that will allow it to age gracefully for the next 7-10 years. The complexity that the 2005 vintage exhibited meant that we did not need to blend any other varietals into this wine, this is 100% Cabernet.
