A plush, forward style, with warmed cassis and plum sauce notes draped over mocha, sweet tobacco and singed vanilla accents.
Cakebread’s 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Suscol Springs offers up scents of cherries and raspberries, framed by oaky, cedary notes. It’s medium to full-bodied, seemingly a bit less concentrated and more supple than the winery’s other named Cabernets, but it still firms up nicely on the finish. Drink it anytime over the next decade or so
Ripe blackberries, blackcurrants, toasted walnuts, cedar, mocha and spices. Medium- to full-bodied, polished and sleek, with fine, textural tannins. Lengthy and linear. Really smooth and silky.
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Suscol Springs is 98% Cabernet Sauvignon with 2% Merlot, all of which spent 22 months in 54% new French oak. It’s probably the biggest, softest wine of the trio and has a ripe, opulent style in its plum, blueberry, chocolate, iron, and spicy wood-driven aromas and flavors. It has beautiful purity, full-bodied richness, sweet tannins, and a great finish. Drink this beauty any time over the coming 15 years or so.
A luscious mouthfeel and saturated black-fruit flavors give this wine a smooth, deep expression. Aged in 70% new barrels, it’s loaded with blueberries, black cherries and dark chocolate that weave through soft, silky tannins.
