Auros Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Auros is crafted with hand-selected fruit from a combination of vineyard blocks in four revered Napa Valley sub-appellations: Oak Knoll, Oakville, Rutherford and Stag’s Leap. Auros reflects predominantly deep, fine volcanic loam and gravelly, alluvial loam soils. Cabernet Sauvignon made from these specific soils offers a rich texture and soft tannins , balanced by ripe currant flavors and pleasing acidity.

This deeply concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon opens with dark fruit aromas of cassis, blackberry, and dried blueberry, underscored by notes of violet and graphite. The rich, full-bodied palate unveils opulent layers of black currant jam, roasted coffee, tobacco, dried fig, and vanilla bean. Soft, supple tannins frame a plush, velvety finish.

Blend: 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot, 2% Syrah, 1% Cabernet Franc
