This lush and elegant Cabernet Sauvignon initially displays aromas of black cherry, nutmeg, and cedar, followed by mushroom, dried sage, and underlying floral notes. A first taste of the full-bodied wine reveals flavors of cranberry, fine leather, and espresso. A hint of dried herbs and minerality bolster its richness, while firm tannins provide structure. The broad palate and soft edges make this Cabernet approachable in its youth while also perfect for aging. Established in 1972, Dry Creek Vineyard is Dry Creek Valley's flagship winery located in the heart of Sonoma County, California. As the region's first new winery following Prohibition, founder David Stare paved the way for a viticultural rebirth in this vibrant winegrowing appellation. Among other industry benchmarks, Dry Creek Vineyard is recognized as the first winery to plant Sauvignon Blanc in the Dry Creek Valley. A pioneer of Bordeaux-style blending, the winery was also the first to use
the term Meritage with the 1985 vintage and the first to coin the term "Old Vine" to describe pre-Prohibition era Zinfandel vineyards.
