Description
From Round Mountain Vineyard we have produced this rich, wonderfully aromatic and mouth filling wine. It took three years to find the best block of Cabernet on our Home Ranch and two years aging in barrel to let the fruit components and tannin meld naturally. For this vintage we blend in 30% of our Circle O Cabernet, a young vineyard, just starting to show off. Aromas of dried fruits, black currants, toasted hazelnuts, and dark chocolate fuse with flavors of savory herbs, worn leather, dried cherries and French oak resonate up through the glass. Slow wine is the best wine.
