The first vintage from this beautiful Stag’s Leap District vineyard site, the 2017 Hirondelle Cabernet Sauvignon shows the region’s classic iron-rich aromas and freshness on the palate. Concentrated but with linear precision and acidity, the wine is powerful yet silky. Hedonistic flavors of blueberry pie, dark chocolate and licorice lead into hints of crushed rock and black tea. With powdery tannins and a lovely finish, the wine shows great promise as one of our most food-friendly wines.
