Cakebread Suscol Springs Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2019 750ml

Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California

Notes from the Winemaker

Cakebread Suscol Springs Cabernet tells the story of this hillside estate vineyard where cooler temperatures and rocky, well draining soils yield concentrated fruit and exquisitely balanced acidity.  Comprised of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot, the wine aged 22 months in 70% new oak, 30% neutral oak barrels.

Fresh expressions of blackberry, boysenberry, and black cherry are balanced by fresh acidity and supported by a firm tannic structure.

Reviews and Accolades

93 Points/James Suckling
Blackberries and blackcurrants with some herbs, lemon and violets. Full-bodied with round tannins and a juicy finish. Beautiful fruit with savoriness and softness. Goes on for minutes.
