Birichino - Santa Cruz Mountains Peter Martin Ray Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Wine Enthusiast
The Cabernet Sauvignon from Peter Martin Ray Vineyard boasts a beautiful, intense color. The nose is juicy, with notes of black fruit and spices, accompanied by hints of precious wood, balsamic, cedar, and pencil lead. The wine shows full ripeness, and the fruit is bursting with intensity. The oak highlights the wine’s structure. The palate is full-bodied and robust. The wine possesses a beautiful, concentrated depth without being heavy. It is still very young, and the aging process is still noticeable. A lovely tannic structure extends and rounds out the finish. Great potential!
