2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 1.5L Magnum
Ripe Cranberry • Dried Oregano • Very Drying Tannin
Best enjoyed at 55° - 60°F
Suggested drink window: now – 2028 - 2035
Made from 44% Estate and 56% Grower fruit, the 2024 Cabernet Sauvignon displays the concentration and heft you’d expect from the varietal while also showcasing a levity and drive that highlights a nuanced interplay of fruit and neutral oak barrels. Harvested over a three-day period in late October, these were the final grapes harvested for the 2024 vintage, allowing more hang time to reduce acids, accumulation of softer tannins, and of course(!), more sugar. The resulting blend is both powerful and balanced, fruity and earthy, bombastic and velvety.
