Wine Review: This ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Stonestreet shows really nice finesse. It opens with a fragrant cranberry and black currant bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, nicely balanced, silky smooth and fruit forward. The flavor profile is a tasty flinty mineral influenced black currant with notes of old oak, black olive and hint of green pepper. The finish is dry and its refined tannins fade away nicely. I would drink this Cab soon, as it is showing nicely now. It would pair perfectly with a filet mignon. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Situated on the northwest-facing lip of a back bowl on the mountain, the 2015 Bear Point Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon ripples with a high tone that’s unusual for Cabernet anywhere in the world. Dark Santa Rosa Plum, raspberry, and fig combine in a palate that’s saturated and textured with notes of cocoa powder and leather on the finish. Bright acidity and soft, fine-grained tannins make this wine a pleasure to drink, seamless to age, and excellent with food.
