2019 Lancaster Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Alexander Valley, Sonoma stags leap

2019 Lancaster Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Alexander Valley, Sonoma stags leapWinemaker Notes The 2019 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon captures the pure expression of their unique terroir at Lancaster Estate. It is a blend of four of the five of the red Bordeaux varietals they have planted on their volcanic hillside vineyards. The nose is rich with aromas of dark plum, tobacco and black pepper. The palate is deep and concentrated with flavors of black cherry, dark stone fruit, dried sage and a subtle earthiness. Blend: 80% Cabernet
