Cabernet Sauvignon – 2017; William & Chris Wines; Hye, Texas

It’s interesting to see how well certain wines did in different regions of Texas during the fantastic 2017 year.  This Cab was sourced from Marallan Oak Vineyard which is in the eastern part of the Texas Hill Country AVA. After that initial pour, you will note a bit of spice on the nose in addition to rich dark fruit. After doing a swirl, sip and repeat, those notes of blueberries and cherries start to envelop your taste buds.  Yes, there is a little bit of plum in there too for this medium bodied red wine.  The tannins are about a half notch below moderate, and the finish is smooth. Very nicely done. Cheers!
