Tasting notes
Offering up a ripe, sexy, forward style, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Denali comes from a noteworthy vineyard in St. Helena and is 100% barrel fermented Cabernet that spent 22 months in 80% new oak. Tons of ripe black raspberries, cassis, mulled spices, and dried flower notes all soar from the glass and this beauty has a seamless texture and a great finish. It’s not holding anything back, so I see no need to delay gratification.

Very deep purple-black in color, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Denali has a provocative nose of baked black currants, plum preserves and spice cake with hints of bouquet garni, cast iron pan, tree bark and tar. Full-bodied, rich and densely packed with warm, seductive fruit, it has a racy line of freshness lifting the long, chewy finish.
