BRANDLIN CAB SAUV EST 18

Details

Located high on the steep slopes of Mount Veeder, Brandlin Estate produces exceptional mountain grown wines. The estate includes 49 acres of Napa Green Certified vineyard, located 900 to 1,250 feet above the fog line. Because of Mount Veeder’s mountainous terroir and location, the long growing season results in concentrated, perfectly ripened fruit. These intense grapes allow to produce wines that express this rare and singular mountain site.

Tasting Notes:
The 2018 Brandlin Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is the essence of Mount Veeder, a beguiling balance of complex, sophisticated aromatics and fruit intensity wed to a core of taut yet silky tannins. Notes of cassis, lingonberry, black cherry, and crushed cocoa come to the fore with hints of violets, thyme, black tea, and kirsch all layered on a bed of velvety tannin.
