Tasting notes
One of Freemark Abbey's flagship single-vineyard bottlings, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Bosché Vineyard is derived from a 22-acre site the winery has been working with since 1968. Currently, the oldest vines date to 1991. Planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, this vintage contains approximately 6% Merlot. Touches of cinnamon, vanilla, dark chocolate and mocha accent super-ripe black cherries. Full-bodied, ripe and close to velvety—yes, the texture is perhaps a touch coarser than in the very best years—it's a terrific effort, with ample concentration and length.

Checking in as a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Bosché offers plums, black fruits, spice, graphite, dark chocolate, and scorched earth wood smoke aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it shows concentration and nice balance, with a structured mouthfeel and ripe tannins. While the fruit leans to the very ripe side, this impressive effort will evolve for 8-10 years.
