Spellbound Cabernet Sauvignon (75cl, 13.5%)

Spellbound Cabernet Sauvignon is a California Cabernet Sauvignon aged in American and French oak, bottled at 13.5% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Produced under the direction of Rob Mondavi Jr. through Folio Fine Wine Partners, it draws fruit from Alexander Valley, Dry Creek Valley, Russian River Valley, Santa Barbara and Lodi. The multi-appellation sourcing allows the team to select sets for structure and ripeness, and the wine matures in a combination of American and French oak barrels. Serve at around 60-65°F, with a few minutes of breathing in the glass. The aroma leads with ripe blackberry and dark plum, then cedar, tobacco leaf and toasted oak, with baking spice. The palate is lush, with cassis and ripe plum, vanilla and warm oak spice, full and round. The finish is medium, with soft, well-integrated tannins and lingering blackberry, light cedar and dark chocolate.
