Schmidt Family Vineyards 2015 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Schmidt Family Vineyards 2015 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon


After claiming a Gold Medal at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Awards, this Southern Oregon Cabernet pulled a repeat performance at SavorNW, this time claiming Double Gold. The wine offers enticing dark and complex aromas alluding to berry jam, dried cherry, black peppercorn, baking spices, cedar and a hint of red bell pepper. On the palate, it's reminiscent of black cherry, beautifully balanced with earthy notes of cocoa, violet, a graphite minerality and generous, but not intrusive tannins that frame an elegant, dry finish. - Reviewed by Gary Hayes
