Sebastiani 2009 Cherryblock Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma Valley)

Country: US / Cherryblock
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Sebastiani / Sonoma Valley

The winery has been producing this bottling for many years, and this is possibly the finest ever. It’s soft, but not too soft, ripe, but not too ripe, and exquisitely flavorful, offering tiers of red cherries, cocoa and bacon, enhanced with smoky, sweet new oak. It’s a fine wine to drink with grilled steak.
