The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits slightly more opulent, riper black currant fruit in the aromas along with some hints of anise and spicy oak as well as some cocoa and espresso. The wine is dense ruby/purple, medium to full-bodied, beautifully rich in fruit, with silkier tannins and slightly lower acidity than the 2005. It should drink well when released and age nicely for 12-15+ years. Production is around 1,000 cases from this vineyard that sits nearly adjacent to the famous Vineyard 29 off Route 29.
