Tasting notes
One of the most distinctive wines in this lineup, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Smothers-Remick Ridge is deep and beautifully resonant in the glass. A host of dark cherry, plum, cloves, tobacco and licorice build in a deeply expressive, layered Cabernet Sauvignon endowed with real personality and class.

The serious Cabernet Sauvignons start with the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Smothers Remick Ridge Vineyard, which is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 32 months in 56% new French oak. This wine exhibits classic crème de cassis, cedar wood, Christmas fruitcake and spice box notes, loads of new saddle leather, blackcurrants and blackberries on the palate, a full-bodied constitution, and light to moderate tannin in the finish. It will be better in 3-4 years and certainly keep for two decades or more.
