Herb Lamb 2013 HL Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
Although 2013 was another drought vintage, it still managed to show text-book growing conditions and give us a tremendous crop of excellent quality. Winemaker Mike Trujillo says “The intensity of color and fruit extraction of the 2013 vintage was perfect, giving us even broader wines than the fruit-forward Cabernets from 2012”. On the nose there is a woody note of chestnut combined with sweet red fruits. In the mouth, you find cranberry, cherry, dried blueberry and spices of Mexican chocolate. More black cherry pie and dusty coca flavors are highlighted by a wealth of caramel, cinnamon and spice flavors, making it very rich in the mouth with an added depth and extraction.
