Upchurch Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Ltl 2017

The 2017 nose is bright, fresh and expressive, where currants and violets are apparent right away. Black cherries thyme, cracked pepper, and sage add to its complexity. Classy flavors show a great vintage and include lush black cherries, cassis, flint, mocha, and toast. These flavors are corralled by mouthwatering ripe tannins, structure, and balance. The finish is long and beautiful, which again shows a great vintage for this estate Cabernet Sauvignon.

Notable black, purple, opaque color showcases a deep dark wine with tons of Red Mountain fruit. Black raspberries, plumbs, soft leather, flowers and a cabinetof spices are present in the nose. A big powerful and rich mouthfeel exhibits deep flavors of raspberries, blackberries and toasty oak. Lower tannins and mouthwatering structure make this wine hedonistic and pure with a lengthy finish.
