NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Concannon Selected Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon has a deep, ruby-red hue that is vibrant and inviting.The nose is explosive, with aromas of dark berry, cherry, and cassis, complemented by dried herbs, sweet oak, and a hint of baking spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and powerful, with firm tannins and an underlying acidity that carries the flavors of ripe blackberry, blueberry, and currant through to the long, lingering finish. This is a structured and well-crafted wine, with a pleasing balance of complexity and approachability.
