Spence Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Powerful, elegant, and loaded with charisma—This is a benchmark vintage for SPENCE CABERNET SAUVIGNON—showcasing the one-of-a-kind terroir derived from red volcanic soils 1,900 feet above the valley floor. Opens with a luxurious aromatic melange of cocoa powder, bramble berry, cinnamon stick, vanilla bean, and decadent framboise. On the palate, the rich velvety entry unfolds with layered waves of black plum, dark chocolate, black cherries, sweet cedar, and vibrant spices, in a seamless weave of well integrated tannins. Tasting fabulous at release, this wine should remain in its prime through 2036.
