2022 Bismark Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

HANNA Bismark Moon Mountain Cabernet Saucignon 2022 - 95 Points, James Suckling

"This powerful and smooth-textured wine goes very deep in black fruit, very broad in mouthfeel and is well structured in fine-grained tannins. Creme de cassis, dried blueberry, cocoa, graphite and iron flavors expand on the palate and linger in the finish. Drinkable now but best in 2030."

Vineyard Source: Our Bismark Mountain Ranch is high above the city of Sonoma and San Pablo Bay. Here on the southwestern flanks of the Mayacamas Mountains we grow 27 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon amid outcroppings of Rhyolite. We began planting in 1991 and continue to fine tune our mix of cultivars to this day. This is steep ground; shared with Creosote bush, grey pine, coyote, and mountain lion. Topographically it is similar to the Douro. Windy, sun drenched yet moderate in temperature, Bismark grudgingly produces grapes with an intense, deeply concentrated flavor.
