About Bodega Norton Barrel Select Cabernet Sauvignon:
The Barrel Select line expresses both the fruit attributes, such as freshness and sweetness, along with the smoky influences of oak, which add to the wine’s complexity. This is accomplished by aging a portion of the wine in French oak barrels and then blending with wines aged in stainless steel. As a result, a delicate balance between fruit and oak is obtained, in which the scents and flavors of each blend are combined with the oak’s toasted notes. 50% of the Cabernet Sauvignon is aged in French oak barrels before blending.
Tasting Notes:
Deep red ruby. Aromas of blackberries and red peppers, with notes of eucalyptus and cinnamon. Elegant on the palate, good body, round and consistent.
