The 2020 Sabina Vineyards St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon displays a deep dark garnet color with enticing aromas of dry sage, thyme, black fruits, cocoa and cassis. On the palate, flavors of Damson plum, blackberry, and ripe raspberry mingle in harmony with the fine-grained tannin structure finishing strong with notes of tobacco, cedar and cassis.
The textural aspect of this Cabernet Sauvignon is black- fruited, flavorful, classic and age-worthy, and the wine possesses a velvety texture, refined tannins, pleasing opulence and a youthful finish. This is a classic from St. Helena that has been revised and updated for the modern palate, yet it shows the refinement and structure that have made such wines famous. While delicious when young, the wine will benefit from additional bottle aging for the next 15-20 years.
