Stonestreet Estate Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California, United StatesAlways a blend of the best Cabernet Sauvignon from Monument Ridge, Mayacamus Mountains, sites at Stonestreet. The savoury aromatic Alexander Valley fruit sets the stage for a rich cabernet packed with blackberry, black licorice, menthol, smoke and tobacco, and dense, sticky tannins with a touch of orange. A small splash of petit verdot is aged 19 months in 38% new French oak. Big and burly at this point, this will need some time to mellow. Best now with grilled meats.Tasted: 10 January 2023Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $74.25 | 750ml | select private retailers |
