2018 Cabernet Sauvignon - Slide Mountain Vyd.
Cherry and cola define the aromatics, with intervals of green olive and fresh tobacco imparting subtlety and complexity. Flavors of cassis and well-worn leather presage notes of sweet vanilla bean and a refreshing brininess. The entrance is ample and concentrated, though its ripeness is graciously bolstered and lifted by supple tannins from the weighty middle, to the lissome finish.
