Description

Red Wine: 2017 | Marciano Estate | Cabernet Sauvignon

An impressive dark red ruby burgundy color, intensely aromatic with great complexity, boasting rich aromas of dark cocoa, espresso, graphite, anise, black fruits, and ripe summer berries. On the palate, it offers soft tannins, building to a densely focused, well-structured dry mid- palate, layered with flavors of creamy chocolate, ripe blackberries, blueberries, black cherry, licorice, and vanilla. The finish is lingering, fresh and luscious, while refined and elegant.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: This was tasted as a barrel sample. Deep garnet-purple, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate charges forth with bold black fruit expressions of blackberries, black currants and black plums, slowly revealing hints of dried mint, lavender, tapenade and pencil lead plus a waft of underbrush. Rich, full-bodied and concentrated with a firm line of wonderfully ripe, fine-grained tannins, it has a lovely line of freshness and a very long, very pure finish.

• Jeb Dunnuck: A great wine from a more challenging vintage, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon offers terrific complexity in its chocolaty dark fruits, spice box, and cedar pencil aromatics. These give way to a medium to full-bodied, silky, beautifully balanced.
