Description
Established in 1886, Freemark Abbey was one of the first Cabernet producers in California’s Napa Valley region and today it’s best known for its classically structured Cabernet Sauvignon. The Sycamore vineyard was planted in the mid-1970s, on gravelly soils with an eastern sun exposure to ripening balanced fruit.This is a fine example of the wonderful wines Freemark Abbey creates. It’s a beautiful, rich Cabernet, full of texture and flavour and is a wine that could be enjoyed now or allowed to age for a number of years.
Tasting Note
A rich, textured Cabernet Sauvignon with intense aromatic complexity of blackberry, pomegranate syrup, black tea, and forest floor. The palate is rich and textured with flavours of forest fruits, dark chocolate, bay leaf, and warm oak spices. The ‘Rutherford dust’ is evident in the tannin structure, giving it textures that are bold but integrated, making it lovely to drink now with the capability to age in the cellar for decades.Product Reviews
