Crafted from the esteemed Los Amigos Ranch in Sonoma County, the 2016 Hook & Ladder Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable expression of this iconic region. Scoring 95 points, it reveals a complex bouquet of ripe blackberries and cherries, complemented by subtle notes of cocoa and a hint of earthy tobacco. On the palate, the wine is both rich and velvety, with well-integrated tannins and a dash of spice that lingers beautifully. This Cabernet is an ideal companion for a hearty grilled steak or a cozy evening by the fireplace. With its robust character and depth, it’s a smart buy for the quality, delivering a sophisticated experience that far exceeds its peers.
