This Cabernet Sauvignon from Eric Demuth comes from the heralded Clajeux vineyard in Chalk Hill. The vineyard is south facing and maintains the cool morning climate. It has a classic nose of blackberries, tobacco, pomegranate, cassis, cedar box, and wild, following this are touches of violet and dried currant. It has a solid core of mainly red fruits with hints of black fruit, bell pepper and dried herbs. All of this comes together in the youthful and dry finish. This is showing a lot of complexities and structure today but will benefit from 3-4 years of bottle age. (Best 2018-2030) - September, 2015 (MD)
