2019 Lampyridae Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

A powerful Cabernet Sauvignon from Beringer’s high elevation site on Mt Veeder, where the vineyard lies mostly above the fog line. This Cabernet is expressive and ripe with floral notes of violet and spiced plum on the nose, while on the palate, layers of blackberry, blueberry, and cassis, sit alongside baking spiced notes of cedar, clove, hazelnut, and vanilla. A full-bodied structure with chewy, velvety-rich tannins, leading to a polished finish that is long and chocolatey with subtle hints of black olive. Drinking beautifully upon release and sure to improve over time as it ages.
