This special shipment of the 2013 is especially exciting as the wine is gaining further comlplexity as it develops in the bottle. The core aromas and flavors of dark berries, vanilla and toasted oak are present and now complemented with extra layers of tobacco and earth. The tannins are rounded and melt in your mouth like dark chocolate. This wine has gained more nuance, complexity and depth with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAppellation Knights Valley Vineyard(s) Bavarian Lion Vineyard Barrel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eComposition 90 percent new French oak 10 percent neutral French oak Barrel aging 28 months Alcohol 14.5 percent Winemaker Garrett Martin Cases 350\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccolades\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e90 points, Robert Parker Winemaker’s Notes With fully ripe and mature cabernet sauvignon, it is especially important to balance fresh fruit and acidity with richness and tannins. The picking decision is critically important to capture the grapes at their peak of balance. At the winery, we shepherd the grapes with careful berry sorting, fermentation temperature regulation and vigilance for tannin extraction, while the wine is fermenting on skins. Long barrel aging adds complexity, softens tannins and molds mouthfeel. The Vintage 2013 was one of the classic California vintages. Warm and dry, the long growing season and plentiful sunshine allowed full maturity in the clusters at Bavarian Lion Vineyard in Knights Valley, one of the easternmost Sonoma County appellations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Logan, Adobe Road","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53752493670624,"sku":"100149","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/adobe-road-bavarian-lion-vineyard-cabernet-sauvignon_1.jpg?v=1785442850","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/adobe-road-bavarian-lion-vineyard-cabernet-sauvignon-2013-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
