Description
The Estate Cabernet Sauvignon can be called Padroneís favorite son. It inherited Padroneís intense varietal aromas and concentrated flavor. Yet, because the grapes are sourced from several of our younger less rocky parcels with a variety of exposures, clones and soil types, it enjoys a softer tannin structure. This wine was aged for 21 months in 85% new French oak and was not fined or filtered prior to bottling.
Inky purple-colored, with notes of charcoal, graphite, blackcurrants and blueberries, the wine is dense, opulent, full-bodied, fresh and full. It will drink well for up to 20 more years.
“The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is a beauty. Inky purple-colored, with notes of charcoal, graphite, blackcurrants and blueberries, the wine is dense, opulent, full-bodied, fresh and full.” – 94 Points Robert Parker The Wine Advocate, October 2015
