100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from 6 different clones make up the plush 2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon by Matthews. It's a stunning wine that deserves attention and is cellared in 100% new French oak for 21 months. Gifting a deep brooding purple core with a lighter purple rim, it boasts plush crushed blackberries, sweet boysenberries, Christmas spices, forest spruce, toasted clove, and mountain sagebrush notes across the palate and the nose. An elegant and lovely structure flows across the tongue. Crunchy tannins, mouthwatering acidity, and an earthy finish complete the wine. Better in 2025 and then age for another 10-15 years. 1842 cases produced. Highly recommended.
