The 2012 Cakebread Cabernet is very expressive, offering bold aromas of black cherries and black currant followed by mocha, tobacco, spices and loam. This is full-bodied and plush, backed by round, dusty tannins. The finish has excellent length and polish leaving you wanting more. This will be approachable upon release and will continue to evolve over the next decade. Composed of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot.
