2022 La Crema Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County

“The first time I have tasted this wine, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County is a blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot, along with a small amount of Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. A saturated dark red hue, it’s stylistically ripe and lush, opening to notes of plum, cassis, cedar, sweet tobacco, and vanilla. The palate has a plush, ripe, chocolate texture, with a rounded and approachable feel, although its undertones of more mountainous fruit come through on the finish. It will be best enjoyed over the next few years.” – Jeb Dunnuck Review Date: July 2025
