Winemaker’s Note: Chewy. Complex on the nose. Balanced and age-worthy. It’s kind of like soft, expensive leather that you don’t want to stop smelling! This is an approachable Cabernet Sauvignon that always over delivers.
On the nose: Bing cherry, vanilla, spearmint, and cigar box
On the palate: Cherry cola, caramel, cigar smoke.
Food pairing ideas: Steak! Gorgonzola cheese. Steak topped with gorgonzola cheese! Venison. Beef stew. Grilled tuna. Anything with tomato sauce.
When to drink: Now through 2036, Peak 2028-2032

What is ‘Craftsman’?
Craftsman is a popular home style that emerged from the American Craftsman movement of the turn of the 20th century showcasing hand-worked, local materials. Classic. Solid. Handcrafted. Purity of style. This cabernet will stand the test of time, but you will want to drink it now. Enjoy this all-American handiwork on the front porch or in your favorite cozy nook.
