Aperture 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon   

2020 Aperture Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley

Wine Advocate
96 Points

The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon was blended with 4% Cabernet Franc, 3% Malbec, 1% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot and matured for 18 months in 55% new French oak. Deep ruby-purple, it has alluring scents of Morello cherries and blueberries accented by wafts of laurel leaves, allspice and cocoa. Medium-bodied and firm yet velvety, it's ripe yet more restrained than previous vintages, offering classy oak spice and surprising drinkability. 2,033 cases produced. Drink Date 2024 - 2034.
