2018 Cabernet Sauvignon 'Stone Place'

“It has a pure, elegant, full-bodied style as well as beautiful aromatics of cassis, ground herbs, violets/flowers, and cedar pencil. Flawlessly balanced, it builds nicely with time in the glass and has ultra-fine tannins and the class to drink well today yet evolve for 20-25 years. This cuvée spent 20 months in 90% new French oak. Don’t miss it!” ~ Jeb Dunnuck

Tasting Notes: The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon ‘Stone Place’ blends power, balance and elegance, what we recognize as the legacy of the Crocker Estate. There is an enticing purity and elegance on the nose with aromas of blackberry compote, cassis, violet and toasted cedar spice. Luscious layers of black plum, malt chocolate, and silky tannins give way to a long, luxurious sandalwood finish. Cellar for 20+ years or decant upon opening
