Reverie 2009 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (Diamond Mountain District)

Country: US / Estate
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Reverie / Diamond Mountain District

Like almost all of Reverie’s Cabernets on release, this one needs time in the cellar. Tasted in fall 2011, it’s tight and grapey, with blackberry jam flavors girded by a firm, stony minerality and sweet, but hard, tannins. Give it 6–8 years.
