Bottled under the Olema label by Amici Cellars, this Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon was sourced from vineyards in Dry Creek Valley and Alexander Valley. The overall cooler growing season in 2010 in these otherwise warm appelations contributed to make a structured wine with moderate alcohol. The fruit flavors are developed and well balanced without being jammy or confected. An inclusion of 7% Merlot serves to add a textured mouthfeel and the wine spent 16 months in 30% new French oak. From winemaker Joel Aiken: "This polished Cabernet Sauvignon displays complex aromas of black cherry, cedar and espresso followed by dark berry fruit, spice and mocha flavors. It is full-bodied with smooth tannins and a wonderful, lingering finish."
