“Our 2017 Rockpile Cabernet Sauvignon has beautiful, detailed aromas of black candied-fruit, sweet hummus and semi-sweet chocolate. Despite the very limited production, we hand-selected each barrel to tease out each nuance that our “spice rack” could offer. Balanced and seamless, this wine also has perfectly placed silky tannins. Please enjoy this incredible wine over the next 8+ years.” More at MauritsonWines.com
