The Cannonball Cabernet Sauvignon Elegant and expressive. An exciting revival of a classic style. Our Cabernet has the best characteristics of traditional California and old world Bordeaux.
Intense fruit aromas of black cherry, plum accented by vanilla, caramel and rich toasted oak. Full on the palate with good concentration and considerable structure on the finish.
With each region maturing at different times we enjoy optimizing the individual parcels to bring layers to the final blend. Traditional fermentation techniques with twice daily pump-overs are typical cellar treatments for our wines. French Oak aging begins shortly after vintage at the earliest stages of the new wines, and blending takes place in multiple stages over the 18 months following harvest to integrate and harmonize the components prior to bottling.
Dark cherry fruit wrapped in caramel and mocha accented by toffee oak. The palate opens with generous plum, cherry, boysenberry, and red currant fruit. Soft, smooth tannins midpalate with a dense core of fruit and layered with oak-derived notes of coffee, toffee, and toast.
