Flanagan 2023 North Coast 'Beauty of Three' Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2023 Flanagan North Coast Beauty of Three Cabernet has a savory nose of leather, pencil shavings, essence of black plum, and coffee. The palate has black plum skin, rhubarb, cocoa nibs, and cinnamon. As always, the wine has a surprising amount of tannin structure for a New World Cabernet. All the Cabernet comes from hillside vineyards, and the small berries produced from the steep, volcanic sites give the wine great color and concentration.
