Private Reserve


Cabernet Sauvignon

2022

Draped in a sumptuous cloak of deep violet, this wine unveils a captivating aromatic mosaic of blackcurrant, opulent ripe plums, and a graceful dusting of exotic cardamom. On the palate, a vibrant medley of flavors unfurls—think lush blackberry preserves, sun-ripened strawberries, and juicy cherries —all harmonized by hints of tangy cranberry, warming baking spices, and a whisper of verdant herbs. This opulent, full-bodied expression features polished, graceful tannins, delivering a radiant and enduring finish that lingers with impeccable finesse.
