Brave & Maiden 2013 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (Santa Ynez Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Winery: Brave & Maiden / Estate

This wine’s vividly layered nose blends dusty garden herbs of oregano and marjoram with hints of chile pepper, wet concrete and plum skins. The palate is supple and complex, showing dynamic spices and herbs, cut olives, savory meats and pipe smoke, much like a Middle Eastern tagine.
