Airfield Cabernet Sauvignon, Washington, USA
Dark fruit aromas are interwoven with complex layers of sandalwood and seared leather. The full-bodied palate is robust, yet remarkably elegant with secondary flavors of salted toffee, blackberry, cocoa powder and sweet pipe tobacco.
Finishing off with remarkably smooth and structured tannins, the balanced acidity accentuates the dark berry with jam like flavors, leaving a finish that lingers on the palate for an incredible length.
Goes well with Grilled Steak with Salsa Verde, Beef Tagliata, Arugula and Trevisana Salad, Port Wine Braised Beef Short Ribs, Sharp White Cheddar or Roquefort.
