Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 93
An inky color, potent black-fruit flavors and a velvety texture add up to a lot of deliciousness in this full-bodied and moderately tannic wine. Black currants and black cherries are accented by spearmint and toasted oak notes. Best through 2030.
Wine Tasting Notes
The Dry Creek Vineyard Dry Creek Cabernet Sauvignon is a luxurious and sophisticated wine that greets the senses with the enticing aromas of black cherry, plum, and fig. As you delve deeper, notes of mocha, violet, and black pepper emerge, adding to its allure. With the first sip, the full-bodied nature of this wine becomes apparent, as flavors of black currant, boysenberry, and blueberry dance on the palate. The wine's complexity is further enhanced by hints of clove, coriander, bay leaf, and green peppercorn, which contribute to its richness. Firm tannins provide a solid structure, while the rich palate and well-rounded mouthfeel make this Cabernet enjoyable in its youth and also suitable for aging.
