Cannonball Cabernet Sauvignon (75cl, 13.8%)

Cannonball Cabernet Sauvignon is a California Cabernet Sauvignon from Share A Splash Wine Co., bottled at 13.8% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Fruit is sourced from Sonoma County, Mendocino, Lake County, San Benito, Monterey and the Central Coast, then fermented with twice-daily pump-overs and aged for 14 to 20 months in a mix of French and American oak. The nose opens with concentrated blackberry and mulberry, layered with clove, violet and a flinty mineral note, with vanilla and caramel emerging as it opens. The palate is plush with boysenberry and black cherry, then dried black plum, black pepper, dark chocolate and sweet cigar notes. It finishes supple and dry, with toasted oak and dark berry fruit.
