Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Wilmeth Vineyards 2019
2019 harvest was a monumental year for growth and yields, ending the season with indominable rains. It was a year to challenge the winemaking teams across Texas.
Alas, the Wilmeth family stays true, growing this fabulous Cabernet Sauvignon. Always a favorite, The Wilmeth Vineyard cab evokes images of West Texas soil and sunsets. . This particular vintage opens with a flint/gunpowder like nose, then opens to expose ripe fruits, stewed red fruit compote with a hint of green peppers, and boasts a mouthful of ripe cherries and blueberries, so juicy, they slip right off the palate, finishing with a pop of acidity and smooth tannins.
Aromatics: Green and black peppercorns, flint, brooding cherries, candied molasses
On the Palate: Uber-ripe blueberries and cherries, medium acidity and subtle tannins.
