D.R. Stephens 2012 Moose Valley Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (St. Helena)

Country: US / Moose Valley Vineyard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: D.R. Stephens / St. Helena

This wine is sanguine and elegant despite its full-figured size. Dried cranberry and cassis play on the palate, streaked by an elusive hit of white pepper. Bright and dancing in minerality, it finishes velvety and smooth, just the right amount of toasted oak showing through.
