WINE DESCRIPTION
The Diamond Creek Volcanic Hill Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerful, bold red wine from the renowned Diamond Creek Vineyard in the Diamond Mountain District of California's Napa Valley. Its bold aromas of dark berries, currants, and cassis jump out of the glass, while a hint of earthy spices and tobacco provide a subtle, smoky backbone. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and concentrated, with a firm tannic structure and a long, lingering finish. Rich, ripe flavors of dark fruits, licorice, and dark chocolate mingle, while hints of smoke and espresso give the wine an opulent complexity. Enjoy this robust Cabernet with a hearty steak dinner or a dark chocolate truffle.
