Louis M Martini, Cabernet Sauvignon, California, USA, 2018

A dash of Petite Sirah has been added to this delicious Cabernet Sauvignon, which blends fruit from Sonoma AVAs Alexander Valley and Dry Creek Valley. Aged primarily in tank, but with a portion in French and American oak to add complexity. Ripe and gummy dark fruit – blackcurrant, blackberry and blueberry – with notes of chocolate and clove. Drinking beautifully, but you could also lay this down for five years or more.
