The 2008 CASK 23
combines the signature perfume notes of FAY vineyard with the
structure and hints of minerality of S.L.V. The nose begins with
enticing aromas of violets, dark berries, fresh grated nutmeg and
mocha mint that lead to a luscious palate. Vibrant blackberry and
black cherry fl avors mingle with hints of cola, espresso and dark
chocolate. Bright and lively, this Cabernet has great fruit density
and a silky texture.
Serve CASK 23 with
espresso rubbed prime rib or peppercorn-encrusted and
lightly-seared Ahi tuna.
