2022 COOMBSVILLE

Winemaker's Tasting Notes:

The 2022 Coombsville Cabernet Sauvignon pours a deep, opaque purple with a stunning core of inky black hues. Aromas leap out of the glass showing up blackcurrants, ripe blackberries,  cassis, crushed rock and licorice layered with hints of graphite, black cardamom, and nuances of violets, creating a richly complex nose. Subtle undertones of dark chocolate, and new suede leather add depth and sophistication. On the palate, the wine delivers a concentrated burst of ripe, plush black/purple fruit, complemented by a velvety shroud of tannins and a seamlessness that coats the palate. The finish is long, persistent, and elegantly structured, promising great aging potential. This is quintessential Coombsville Cabernet. Drink now and over the next 15 to 20 years.

Vintage Notes

Known for being one of the more unique vintages in recent history, the climate variability during the fall of 2022 encouraged our teams to work diligently to become as adaptable as possible to overcome the pivots Mother Nature sent our way. We were pleased with the end result: remarkable acidity and freshness that brought out the flavors and textures distinctive of each appellation. Wines from this vintage exhibit excellent structure, deep red colors, luxurious tannins and exquisite fruit-forward aromatics.
