Lot 398
2021 "Trubody Vineyard" Oak Knoll Cabernet Sauvignon

Dark and opaque, this Cabernet stains the glass with a pearlescent purple hue. The bouquet is immediately gravelly and graphitic, opening to an excellent concentration of delineated black cherry, blackcurrant, violets, and dark chocolate covered cherry. The entry is supple-yet-vibrant, mouthwatering with cool-climate structure up front, leading into an array of red and black fruits accompanied by oak spice framed with small, grippy tannins and medium+ acidity. The finish is long and uplifted with nervy red fruits kissed with vanilla bean and barrel spice that folding back into themselves, showcasing more, near-eternal vanilla bean. Super-clean and complex, seamless and elegant, this is lovely example of Oak Knoll Cabernet at its best.
