white pepper and orange peel

reserved and intensely floral nose is gorgeously spiced with ripe red berry fruit aromas that offer up attractive notes of red cherry liqueur

2007 should be one of the better vintages for this wine that ages beautifully well

with the result that the wine is not at all overly oaky

Cornell, Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County other_regions_italy white pepper and orange peelThe 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is aging beautifully. Dark, ample and potent, it rushes across the palate with black cherry, plum, chocolate, spice and incense. It is just starting to show the first signs of aromatic development yet retains gorgeous depth and fine balance. The 2014 captures all the linear energy of the year. It is a terrific wine for an estate that had just made a major push toward improving farming and winemaking at the time.
