2008 Moone-Tsai Cor Leonis Cabernet Sauvignon

Sold Out

This expressive Cabernet opens with tightly layered aromas of ripe black currant and rich leather. The intensity is matched in the mouth, as 22 months of aging in 100% new French oak integrates seamlessly with the wine's creamy, yet powerful tannins. Concentrated flavors of sweet pipe smoke, dark fruit, and allspice sustain throughout the extensive finish. This wine will continue to evolve in the bottle for many years.

In addition to our Coombsville site, the grapes that produced this singular wine were sourced from a vineyard on the Valley's famed Pritchard Hill. Dominating factors in this growing region are the rocky, volcanic soils and the characteristic warm, dry days of the mid and late growing season, both of which forge a distinct taste of place in the grapes and resulting wines. The western-facing vineyard is situated above the fog line, meaning the entire vineyard bathes in sunshine from sunrise to sunset throughout the growing season.
