Volcanic Hill Cabernet Sauvignon

Long life ahead!

Ripe, plummy fruit. Damp earth notes.

Held up beautifully with rich loamy wood and hints of chocolate and dark plum.

1.5L

Pretty closed early but opening up after 15-20 minutes. The dry tannins have gone away - very elegant wine to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary.

Paired with A5 Wagyu Striploin roast. Wine is very balanced and has a lot of life left.

Opened first bottle of mixed case to celebrate anniversary for 3rd decade (cheated a bit as this was 29 years with wonderful bride Kim. Lots of dark fruit with just a touch of tannic finish. We visited Al on our honeymoon to pass muster before he sold a case futures. Quite a character! btw, Groth & Girard were Cans for first 2 decades.
