Miles Garrett 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, Willow Creek, California

60% of the grapes were fermented whole clustered with semi carbonic maceration and were aged for 11 months in neutral French oak. First thing to hit your palate are the light tannins, masqueraded as cigar leaf to the tastebuds. Juicy fruit then comes and coats the palate, boysenberries, fig jam and strawberry preserve. Light vegetal notes cut through some of the fruit on the finish.
