G.B. Crane Vineyard 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon 3pk
Production 9 barrels
Blend Composition 87% Cabernet Sauvignon 8% Petite Sirah 5% Merlot
Opening with soft aromatics of a wild blackberry patch, pencil shavings and ripe fig, the nose evolves into a more nuanced melange of violets, fresh sepia pasta and salad nicoise. Vibrant and energetic upon entry, the vintage's elegant qualities continue with a refined mid-palate of dark berry fruits, a touch of licorice and dark chocolate. The robust tannins - a result of the estate's alluvial soils - will develop and mature well into the next decade.
