2019 Carlson Creek Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

We’ve been sourcing a handful of reds from Carlson Creek Vineyard for the past five vintages now and we’re always surprised by how much this vineyard’s character stands out. The reds just seem to be more approachable with intense, inviting aromatics and softer, less-tannic palates than their counterparts from other vineyards. The Cab Sauv from this vineyard always strikes us as a happy medium between Old- and New-World characters. The fruit on the nose is generous, but it’s bright and vivid; not too dark or concentrated. Light notes of spice, wood and earth add to the fruit’s complexity making this a beautiful and food-friendly wine. Only two barrels produced.
