Product Overview

"Refined tannin and integrated fruit mark this lovely, full-bodied wine, which is 100% varietal and made in tiny amounts. Leather, tobacco and cedar highlight a lengthy and elegant core seething in cassis and currant, with a touch of oak and dark chocolate on the finish." -VB, 10/1/21

"Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Artalade Vineyard bursts from the glass with notes of blueberry compote, baked plums, Black Forest cake and crème de cassis with hints of expresso, licorice and charcoal. The full-bodied palate is packed with black fruit preserves with a refreshing backbone and grainy texture, finishing on a lingering earthy note." -LPB, 11/5/20

"Very inviting, showing a creamy feel throughout as cassis, plum and raspberry notes glide through, with light hints of anise, violet and apple wood. This is well-structured through the finish, but the fruit keeps the upper hand easily. Best from 2023 through 2035. 522 cases made." -JM, 2/28/22
