Sycamore Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon
Image
Located on the southern end of the Rutherford Bench, Sycamore Vineyard’s proximity to
the Mayacamas Mountains provides the perfect climate for growing a rich, textured
Cabernet. The wine is intense in aromatic complexity, reminiscent of blackberry,
pomegranate syrup, black tea, and forest floor. The palate is rich and textured with flavors
of forest fruits, dark chocolate, bay leaf, and warm oak spices. The ‘Rutherford dust’ is
evident in the tannin structure, giving it textures that are bold but integrated. Aging potential in a proper cellar is 30 years or more.

"An abundance of bark, bay leaves, blue fruits and black currants. Lead pencil shavings coming through clearly, too. Full-bodied with a solid tannin backbone that runs the length of the wine and comes across layered and intense. Savory and so structured. A blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. "
