The Character

Aromas Black Cherry, Blueberry Pie, Licorice, Sandalwood
Mouthfeel Plush & Opulent
Tasting Notes The full-bodied palate is bursting with ripe, concentrated fruit like rich layers of boysenberry and shaved dark chocolate, although it doesn't feel overripe or weighty. Its vibrant acidity balances that opulence, and finely grained tannins add a plush feel.

The Story

Comprised of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Skellenger Vineyard, this special property within the Oakville appellation produces fruit with wonderful volume, rich concentration and powerful elegance. This hidden gem of a vineyard is situated in the northernmost portion of the prestigious Oakville appellation, nestled beside neighboring Cabernet Sauvignon vines at Screaming Eagle. Offering the richness of the Oakville valley floor with the structure of hillside fruit, wines produced from Skellenger Vineyard provide a tremendous amount of concentration from tannins, while maintaining balanced richness and approachability.
