Freemark Abbey has held exclusive sourcing rights to Sycamore Vineyard's Cabernet Sauvignon red wine since 1980; the vineyard consistently produces one of our most highly acclaimed Cabernets. Located on the famed Rutherford Bench, adjacent to the Staglin Family, To Kalon, Heitz Bella Oaks and Harlan Estate vineyards. Sycamore Vineyard produces small berries reminiscent of mountain fruit, with intense extract of color and flavors and complexity. This powerful red wine is dominated by flavors of dark fruit with cherry jam, toast, cocoa and baking spices. Integrated oak adds spice. Tobacco and briar flavors add complexity. Pair with ribeye and sirloin steak, portobello mushroom and aged cheeses. This bottled California cabernet sauvignon is 14.5% alcohol by volume.
