2015 Encosta Cabernet Sauvignon 1.5L
2015 Encosta Cabernet Sauvignon 1.5L
Reflective of the maturing of the vines as they increase in age, the 2015 Encosta is exceptionally complex. The wine evolves rapidly in the glass, opening with chocolate- covered cherry, violet and spun-sugar. Warmer notes of sweet oak, caramel, potting soil and crushed rocks emerge with time. In the mouth it is full and energetic; heavier qualities of blackberry preserve, black cherry, ripe pomegranate and five-spice are counter-posed with vibrant acidity, creating a fantastic tension and length all the way through the finish, resolving in more graphite-mineral notes.
