Truchard 2012 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (Carneros)

Country: US / Estate
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Truchard / Carneros

From a knoll in Carneros, oft thought of as chilly for Cabernet, this wine exhibits cooler aspects of the variety, from pencil lead and cedar to dried herb. It is complemented by fruitier characteristics of cassis and plum, finishing in dusty, structured tannins. Cellar through 2017–2020.
