Expressive and polished, this Cabernet opens with baking spice, cedar, fig, and black cherry, then moves into brooding red fruit on the palate. It has a soft but structured feel, with plush tannins, moderate acidity, and a long finish marked by black tea and bramble. The profile is classic Mount Veeder: mountain fruit with good depth, freshness, and enough grip to age a bit. It should appeal to fans of restrained Napa Cabernet rather than the more opulent style.
Serve with grilled ribeye, roast lamb, or mushroom risotto.
