The 2012 Summers Andriana's Cuvee Cabernet Sauvignon begins with very pleasant aromas of blackberry, baking spice, a little vanilla, a little leather, a little cedar and more. Tasting the wine uncovers a rich, smooth and tasty classic California Cab with lots of dark fruit and some well-integrated peppery spice and oaky notes. Dry tannins lead into the long finish which also features a bit of graphite minerality and some continued oaky undertones. This one might still be a bit young but things are coming together nicely!
