The 2021 Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon showcases a refined blend from Dry Creek and Alexander Valley. It opens with vibrant aromas of blackberry, plum, and black cherry, accentuated by subtle vanilla nuances. On the palate, rich layers of blackberry jam, black cherry, and toasted vanilla intertwine with gentle cedar undertones. This gracefully balanced wine features a crisp acidity that perfectly supports its generous fruit character. Composition: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petite Sirah, 8% Other Red Varieties.
This wine from the Sonoma side of the Mayacamas Mountains is a re-brand of what used to be labeled simply as Louis Martini Sonoma County cabernet. Velvety, integrated tannins. Rich, smooth and spicy, packed with plummy fruit, broad in mouthfeel, full- bodied with a lingering finish. Drink or hold.
A quite ripe version, with boysenberry and plum compote notes that glide through, gilded liberally with sweet toast and melted licorice accents. For fans of the style.
