Joel Gott 815 Cabernet Sauvignon (75cl, 13.9%)

A multi-appellation California Cabernet Sauvignon made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Fruit is sourced from six growing regions across the state, with each set fermented separately before blending. The wine ages for 16 to 18 months in 30% new American oak barrels. The nose opens with ripe blackberries, dark plum and black cherry, followed by mocha, cinnamon and cedar. The palate brings concentrated black plum and dried black currant, velvety fine-grained tannins, cumin, coriander and a faint hickory-smoky note. The finish is long and textured, with black pepper, vanilla and wet stone minerality.
