Brookdale 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon - 1.5L

History:

Brookdale Vineyards was founded in 2000, with its first release in the fall of 2002.  This limited production wine is made with fruit hand-selected from some of Napa Valley’s finest vineyard sites.  Annual production is approximately 500-600 cases of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Winemaker Notes:

100% Napa Cabernet.  Dark, Ruby red in color, with deep saturation.  Ripe black cherry and dark chocolate mingled with black currant flavors and hints of roses.  The entry is very round with ample fruit and balanced acidity.  Tannins are full yet smooth and are integrated with the concentration of fruit.  The middle palate resonates into a long finish that is extended by mouth-coating tannins.
