The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Melanson Vineyard is another dark, voluptuous beauty from Castello di Amorosa. Here, too, the style is deceptively mid-weight, yet there is plenty of complexity in the glass. Sweet herbs, tobacco, licorice and lavender open up as the wine builds through the mid-palate and into the finish with gorgeous intensity. (AG)

Notes

Castello di Amorosa sources this Cabernet Sauvignon from Melanson Vineyard on Pritchard Hill, where high elevations and rocky volcanic soils define the site. The vineyard’s exposure above the fog line brings cooler nights and an extended growing season, promoting structure and concentration. The result is a wine that reflects this mountain terroir with depth, balance, and a clear sense of place.
