Lot 404
2020 Dry Creek Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

750ml

Like Howell Mountain Cabernet? Here's a delicious approximation for a fraction of the price...a big, ripe, muscular Cabernet Sauvignon grown from the valley floor to over 2000+ foot elevations throughout the Dry Creek appellation that's normally $60/bottle out of the source tasting room.

Deep garnet in the glass with a pretty nose of black cherry, raspberry, and warm river stones haloed by white florals with a brown sugar underpinning. The palate is lush and inviting on entry with fantastic fruit viscosity and succulence. The tannins are certainly there and lushly coated with ripe red fruits held up by a chocolatey backbone…the finish is chewy, rich and decadent. Big and bold on the palate with warm, ripe inviting fruit, this wine is sure to please a broad swath of palates.
