USA, Dry Creek Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah
$25-$50
Description
Our Proprietor"s Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a balance of intensity and density. The dark garnet color is your first hint of both. Aromas of purple and red fruits, spice box and cedar are so thick that your sense of smell is nearly overwhelmed, yet some sweet toasty oak and vanillin are able to sneak through. The pallet is filled with lush, bright cherries, spice box and a hint of pepper, while the wines natural acidity balances the dense mouth coating tannins and leave you a long, lingering finish. Pair this offering with a rib eye hot off the grill or braised short-ribs with creamy polenta.
