This wine shows floral black aromas and a sweet entry. A rich mid-palate boasts earthy spice with clove and black pepper leading into a long, clean finish. Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon jumps up out of the glass with ready-for-business scents of crushed black currants, blackberry pie and stewed plums plus suggestions of bay leaves, pencil lead, clove oil and tobacco leaf. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with fresh, crunchy black fruits, supported by a firm, grainy frame and bold freshness, finishing with an herbal lift.

Blend: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, 3% Merlot, 1% Petite Verdot

About Anderson’s

Since 1983 we have been family owned and operated by the Anderson’s, and since our first release in 1987, Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards has been dedicated to producing world-class wines. After graduating from University of Pacific in Stockton, CA with a degree in Geology Todd went to work for a small geophysical firm that was on the cutting edge of technology for seismic oil and gas exploration. Todd soon realized the corporate world was not for him. Although he loved the industry he was in, he continually had thoughts of the outdoors and getting back in touch with the soil. These thoughts, along with the mention from his parents of starting a “small vineyard”, are what led to the creation of Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards.
