The Bavarian Lion Vineyard always showcases vibrant blue/black fruits with a tannin profile that is silky and smooth, yet firm in its youth. Knowing this about the vineyard it is important to showcase the fruit with tannins in proportion to the other flavor components.
The 2014 Bavarian Lion Cabernet Sauvignon has a richness and depth that was crafted by the choices from vineyard to bottle. Precision picking timing, exacting extraction, and careful aging for 30 months in 90% new French oak all contribute to this wine’s power and grace. Extra time in barrel helps mold nuanced tannins, aroma development, and greater expression of the wine’s personality.
