Cakebread Suscol Springs Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Other vintages

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Suscol Springs is blended of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot. Deep garnet-purple in color, exuberant notes of fresh blackberries, boysenberry preserves and blackcurrant pastilles rocket from the glass, followed by hints of sautéed herbs, forest floor and black olives. The medium to full-bodied palate is intense and energetic, featuring finely grained tannins and a refreshing backbone, finishing long and lifted.

Blended with 15% Merlot, this is a brooding and weighty wine, offering thick layers of coffee bean and toasted oak. Cedar, dried herb and baking spice add to the mix, complementing the rich black berry and cherry.
