Wine Review: This hazy and deep garnet colored Cabernet Sauvignon from V. Sattui opens with a gentle blackberry and craisin bouquet with hints of clove cookie, dried coconut, and cherry-cola. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, supple, and harmonious. The flavor profile is a cedar influenced cassis and cinnamon blend with notes of cherry-cola and menthol. We also detected hints of graphite, red plum, and clove. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and well-managed tannins drift away nicely. We would pair this Cab with slow cooked beef brisket or with lamb kabobs. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Dark and expressive, this Cabernet opens with aromas of black cherry, cassis, and a whisper of black tea, accented by a subtle mocha richness. The palate is concentrated yet polished, with flavors of cherry cordial, dark chocolate, plum, and blueberry unfolding in smooth succession. Fine tannins, bring suppleness and balance to the wine, guiding it toward a finish that is long, seamless, and satisfying. A classic expression of the Rutherford Bench, it shines alongside dishes like grilled ribeye with rosemary butter or with a cocoa-rubbed pork tenderloin.
