" Red and black currants, blueberries, green tobacco, cedarwood, and new saddle leather notes emerge from the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon / Syrah The Creator Powerline Vineyard. Almost opaque and ruby/purple-hued, it's medium to full-bodied and has a layered, elegant texture, sweet tannins, and a great finish. A wine that builds nicely with time in the glass, picking up more density and length, it has the fruit and balance to offer pleasure today yet the concentration and structure to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and keep for 15-20 years, if you're so inclined."
