2009 Casa Piena Yountville Cabernet Sauvignon

WSI96 The 2009 continues the elevated quality level we saw with the 2008. It’s once more an elegant styled wine being more medium bodied and full of red and black fruits. The nose features rose petals, licorice, sweet tobacco, melted chocolate and black currants. The balance between fruit and soil driven elements continues on the palate with a nice mix of cassis, pain grille, sandalwood, crushed blackberries and blueberries. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. 535 cases produced.
