2025
From Viader Vineyards
The 2025 Viader Cabernet Sauvignon Block B2 presents a captivating deep garnet hue. Aromas immediately unfold with pronounced notes of crème de cassis, dark plum, and a hint of cedar, interwoven with subtle vanilla bean from judicious oak aging. The palate is equally expressive, showcasing a concentrated core of blackberry compote, cocoa nibs, and a touch of graphite. Full-bodied with velvety, yet firm tannins, it possesses a vibrant acidity that provides exceptional balance. The alcohol is well-integrated, contributing to a long, lingering finish marked by dark fruit and spice notes. This impeccably structured Cabernet Sauvignon demonstrates excellent aging potential, promising further complexity and nuance with careful cellaring over the next 15-20 years.
