Aperture 2020 Alexander Valley Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon

96 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 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.  BLEND 91% Cabernet Sauvignon4% Cabernet Franc3% Malbec1% Merlot1% Petit Verdot BARREL PROGRAM Aged 18 months55% new oak60 and 70 gallon French oak barrels
