Andrew Geoffrey Ascent Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Offers both an opulent and an elegant bouquet with aromas of blackberry jam and ripe black cherry, complemented nicely by hints of vanilla. There is a sweetness to the fruit aromatics, but not an over-ripeness. Also, darker sweet dessert spices and additional redolent aromas of old cedar box. On the palate shows darker fruit notes including plum and blueberry. A fine showing of polished and chalky tannins runs the profile of the palate – structurally, shows a noticeable density of tannin which lingers on a very long finish along with notes of cedar and dark spice.  22 months French oak 50% new 50% one-year-old. From some of the highest vineyard land in Sonoma County.
