WINEMAKER NOTES
Step into a world of unparalleled taste and distinction with the Rodney Strong 2018 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, a vintage that captures the essence of a remarkable year in Sonoma County. This opulent creation stands as a testament to the artistry of Winemaker Justin Seidenfeld and the enduring commitment of the Klein family to produce wines of the highest caliber.
The journey begins with nature's careful orchestration - a winter season of unusual dryness followed by a cool, mist-filled summer, devoid of scorching heat spikes. The 2018 vintage embraced a longer hang time, gracing the grapes with larger yields and a symphony of complex flavors. The moment of harvest finally arrived between October 9th and 24th, when patience paid off, and the sugars reached their pinnacle of perfection.
Crafted with unwavering precision, the 2018 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a harmonious blend of select vineyard lots, hand-harvested and fermented separately before finding their place in the finest French oak barrels. Each lot undergoes a meticulous tasting and grading process, ensuring only the most extraordinary components are considered worthy of this masterpiece.
Upon the first sip, your senses will be transported to an enchanting realm of indulgence. Immerse yourself in the intense aromas of black currant, cassis, and crushed violet, dancing gracefully on the palate. Velvety and inviting, this wine leaves a lingering finish of herbal notes, vanilla, and cocoa, inviting you to experience its every nuance.
Versatility is the hallmark of this wine, ready to elevate any occasion. Revel in the present by pairing it with a succulent grilled porterhouse, a tender rack of lamb, or a delightful winter vegetable roast. Alternatively, let time unlock the full potential of this masterpiece by laying a few bottles down in your cellar, rewarding your patience with an even richer experience 4 to 6 years from now.
In crafting this Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Rodney Strong exemplifies their unyielding pursuit of excellence. The meticulous selection process, state-of-the-art Artisan Cellar, and Justin Seidenfeld's extraordinary techniques culminate in a wine that transcends expectations.
Indulge in the elegance of Rodney Strong 2018 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, a timeless symphony of flavor and finesse, and experience the epitome of Sonoma County's winemaking prowess. Elevate your moments, savor the allure of the vintage, and create memories that linger as long as the finish of this extraordinary wine.
