Shady Brook Estate Cab 2012

Tasting Notes: “Bold, opulent and finely structured are the descriptors that most come to mind when tasting this wine. The aromas while subdued at first explode from the glass on standing with accents of ripe black cherry and berries accented by notes of kirsch, mocha and spice along with fresh hints of forest floor and earth after a spring rain. The mid-palate is dense showing a silky mouthfeel and firm tannins along with core flavors following on from the nose and underlying highlights of cocoa and sweet tobacco. In the extremely long multilayered finish you will find pencil lead minerality mingling with creamy oak and wildflower notes.”
