Valravn Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

In the cellar, hand-sorted grapes undergo an extended cold soak followed by primary fermentation in stainless steel. Following primary fermentation, the wine is racked to French oak barrels (new, second use, and neutral) for 18 months aging - Sylvain, Gamba, Darnajou, and Seguin Moreau cooperages.

Decidedly ripe-vintage Bordeaux inspired with a balance of savory and sweet immediately apparent in the clove/baking spice meets cassis/dark berry aromatics. It has a smooth tannin structure with high tones, opulent fruit, and notes of espresso and dark chocolate.
