NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Upon decanting, Schweiger Vineyards' Cabernet Sauvignon boasts a majestic deep crimson hue, indicative of its rich character.The nose is met with a melody of blackcurrants, ripe plums, and a whisper of eucalyptus, underscored by a well-integrated oak presence that imparts hints of vanilla and dark chocolate. The palate is treated to a full-bodied experience, where luscious dark fruit flavors converge with notes of cedar, leather, and tobacco. The wine's robust tannins are elegantly refined, leading to a long, enveloping finish that resonates with the warmth of spices and a subtle mineral edge. This Cabernet is a true reflection of its elevated origins, built to age gracefully and impress with its evolutionary journey.
