CAKEBREAD CELLARS Cabernet Sauvignon, Dancing Bear Ranch 2013

The 2013 Howell Mountain Dancing Bear Ranch is a monumental effort from Cakebread Cellars in this vintage. This is an outstanding blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot, which opens to gorgeous aromas and flavors of blackberries, dark currants and roasted plums woven together with sweet spices, mocha, earthy minerals and underlying loamy notes. This beautifully structured and balanced wine impresses with its remarkable depth and opulent texture which expands seamlessly onto the multidimensional finish. Today this is absolutely irresistible, but also exhibits exceptional aging potential as well. (Best 2017-2034) - August, 2016 (JD)
