2025
From Viader Vineyards
The Viader Cabernet Sauvignon A1 Block 2025 displays a deep ruby core fading to garnet at the rim. On the nose, an opulent bouquet unfolds, layered with ripe blackcurrant, macerated blackberry, and hints of cedarwood and dried violets. Secondary aromas of dark chocolate, espresso bean, and a subtle graphite minerality add complexity. The palate is full-bodied and richly textured, with a concentrated core of dark fruit framed by firm, yet refined tannins and balanced acidity. Flavors of cassis, plum, and a touch of savory tobacco persist through the mid-palate. The finish is long and lingering, exhibiting notes of dark roast coffee and a pleasant earthiness. With its impeccable structure and concentration, this Cabernet Sauvignon possesses excellent aging potential, promising further development and integration over the next 10-15 years.
