Wente 2011 The Nth Degree Cabernet Sauvignon (Livermore Valley)

Country: US / The Nth Degree
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Wente / Livermore Valley

Tight in elegant raspberry and cassis fruit, this small-production Cabernet is on the cool-climate side of the equation, reflective of the vintage. Tastes of black and bell peppers are interspersed with cedar, and the finish is purely oak.
