Brandlin Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Mount Veeder 2019
Introduction
From the United States, in California’s Napa Valley, the Brandlin Estate vineyard lies high on the slopes of the Mount Veeder appellation. The Brandlin family first planted vines here in the 1920s, and today the estate is part of the Cuvaison family, which is dedicated to preserving the land’s legacy while producing wines that reflect the character of this rugged terrain. The combination of steep, volcanic soils and elevated vineyards produces Cabernet Sauvignon with exceptional structure, freshness, and complexity.
Wine Description
Deep and opaque in colour, this Cabernet Sauvignon offers aromas of blackberry, boysenberry, and cassis, accented by hints of cardamom, allspice, and black tea. On the palate, concentrated dark fruit flavours are layered with notes of olive, tobacco, and cocoa. The texture is plush and full-bodied, with supple yet firm tannins providing structure and length. The finish is long and refined, with lingering spice and savoury undertones.

Food Pairing
