2019 Cavalie 7 Cabernet Sauvignon
Aromas of ripe blackberries, dried fruit, baking spice, and hints of cocoa and smoky char create vibrant layers of complexity. The dense, dusty tannins on the palate give this wine intense richness and texture. The graceful power of this wine results in a deep, lingering finish.

Vineyard Notes
With a gentle southwest slope, our Cavalie Vineyard has consistently produced some of our best Cabernet Sauvignon. Block 7 showcases the highest quality of our Cavalie Vineyard.
Production Notes
The grapes were harvested and sorted in the vineyards with our "Selective Harvester" to allow for maximum hangtime and flavor development. The fruit was not crushed in order to preserve as much whole berry as possible. We fermented the fruit in a stainless steel tank with a combination of pumpovers and rack & returns (délestage) to control extraction and flavor. After fermentation, the wine was racked to 90% New French Oak & 10% New American Oak Barrels for malolactic fermentation. The wine was barrel aged for 20 months.
