PerUs Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
A profound inaugural release Cabernet from a winery to watch in years to come. An astounding combination of spectacular opulence plus tremendous density make this an instant classic. It boasts an opaque purple color as well as copious notes of spring flowers, blackberries, black raspberries and gravelly minerality. This bigger-than-life Cabernet Sauvignon appears set for 10 – 20 years of aging but it may also be savored now because of its sweet, velvety tannins. The extraordinary intensity, purity and depth of dark fruit flavors in this flamboyant, exuberant wine are mindboggling. The finish crescendos with sweetness of crème de cassis, toasty oak, exotic spices and hints of mocha from the extravagant new French barrels utilized for aging.
