La Honda Winery 2013 Salinian Block Cabernet Sauvignon (Santa Cruz Mountains)

Country: US / Salinian Block
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: La Honda Winery / Santa Cruz Mountains

This bottling is a great representation of the savory style that’s typical of the Santa Cruz Mountains, but with enough rounded, approachable ripeness that it will appease those seeking juicier wine as well. Aromas of blackberry, blueberry, spicy vanilla and sharp cinnamon-allspice lead into a black and white pepper-laden palate, full of ripe elderberry, blueberry and elderflower.
