2017 Rodney Strong Rockaway Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Alexander Valley, USA (750ml) Barrel Aged Gin Designed in 1986 by 10th

Designed in 1986 by 10th generation glassmaker Georg J

Rio delights the senses with a double cask finish of American honey and Brazilian oak

and by greater refinement and delicacy than those of Chassagne

A ripe mouthful of currant and cherry flavors is framed by fine tannins and a touch of spicy oak

the palate is ripe with pliant tannins and medium to full-bodied richness

Full bodied and ripe, it fills the palate with good lift, a plush feel, well defined tannins, and a clean finish. Jen Dunnuck, 91pts
