Yates Family Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder 2013 (75cl)

Yates Family Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder 2013 is a red wine from the Mount Veeder appellation of Napa Valley, California. It is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grown above 1,200 feet on volcanic hillside soils. The Yates family replanted their steep hillside vineyards in the early 1980s, and the varied blocks contribute distinct qualities to the wine. The wine shows dark ruby colour with blackberry and dark cherry aromatics, followed by toasted cedar and cocoa powder. The palate brings black cherry, dark bramble fruit, graphite minerality, clove spice and firm tannins with baker's chocolate. The finish is long and grippy, with dark fruit, mineral and toasted cedar.
