2021 From The Sky Down Conner Lee Vineyard
Tasting Notes
“A deep ruby/purple hue as well as a great perfume of red and blue fruits, sappy herbs, spring flowers, and a kiss of graphite. With lots of varietal character, medium to full body, fine tannins, and a terrific sense of freshness and purity, it’s a seriously good Cabernet in the making that’s up with the crème de la crème.” - Jeb Dunnuck
