Nickel & Nickel Decarle Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

The 2022 DeCarle Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, from the western Rutherford bench, captivates with aromas of rose petal, black currant, and espresso. This texture-driven wine offers a nice core of concentrated dark fruit flavors, enhanced by firm, chewy tannins. The vineyard's strict leafing procedures and overhead sprinklers ensured optimal performance during the warm growing season, allowing for fine-tuning and focusing on specific blocks, resulting in less quantity but higher quality. The wine's balanced acidity and structured tannins promise excellent aging potential.
