Rich cassis fruit and a good lick of oak make this a plush, easy-drinking example of why it is so highly prized.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"full\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine is sourced from vineyards in the northern part of California’s Central Valley. The region around Lodi and Manteca enjoys significant influence from San Joaquin and Sacramento river deltas, which act as a natural cooling system to the often-searing heat. The effect is to provide freshness to the ripe, fruit charged Cabernet grapes. Individual Cabernet blocks are vinified separately and then blended to produce a wine which reflects the right balance between fruit and structure. The wine then spends 6 months in oak to provide a broad frame for this rich wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"half makefullwidth\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRipe blackcurrant and wild berry fruit on the nose complimented by sweet vanilla oak.
