DESCRIPTION
The Chasing Rain 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon is pure Red Mountain. Scorching days and gusty nights imbue this wine with hints of espresso and mocha on the nose. While it's perfect with a great steak or lamb chop, its long dark cherry finish might just tempt you to have it for dessert.
WINEMAKING
Grapes were delicatley hand picked, destemmed and fermented on the skins for three weeks before being aged for 20 months in New American Oak.
TASTING NOTES
Black cherry, dried herb and hints of espresso and mocha on the nose. Very refined on the palate, with generous fine grain tannins and a dense, savory mid palate that leads to a long, pleasing finish.
PAIRINGS
Pair with butterflied leg of lamb with rosemary, or a rich short rib dish.
