Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Rosedale block of the Frediani
vineyard is powerful and deeply concentrated, showcasing impressive structure. Bold and
expressive, it opens with aromas of black and blue fruits, layered with hints of graphite, cassis,
and baking spices. On the palate, fine-grained tannins add a touch of sweetness, balancing the
wine’s intensity. This Cabernet has excellent aging potential, with the structure to evolve and
gain complexity over the next 8-15 years, making it a standout for both immediate enjoyment
and long-term cellaring.

Grown in a richer, bale clay loam soil, which gives it a distinct flavor profile from its Pickett Road counterpart.
