Nickel & Nickel Branding Iron Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
Nickel and Nickel Winery is all about single varietal, single vineyard wines and the Branding Iron Vineyard is a beautiful Cabernet from the folks at Far Niente. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. The elegantly balanced Nickel & Nickel 2014 Branding Iron Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon offers aromas of blackberry and raspberry fruits mixed with toasty cedar from the oak. These lush, ripe flavors carry through on the palate with hints of green olive and dried herb. The juiciness from the fruit continues through to a lingering finish on soft, coating tannins. This is a wine that can be easily be enjoyed upon release, but will also age beautifully with time in the bottle"

Sipping Fine Wine 
Just had to try another bottle. From an Oakville vineyard, dark Ruby, a rich and complex Cab loaded with berry, currant, spice box and cedar aromas. On the palate blackberry and sweet cherry flavors with notes of pepper, smoke and sweet herbs. Refined tannins, but still tight, long ending with a fine sweet smoky cedar character. Very nice has room to age for a decade or so, but great now!

Classic Oakville. Balanced and structured, with a lingering finish that made it the perfect accompaniment to a medium filet minion.

Oh yeah, maybe a bit young but drinking great with a short decant. Nice red fruit paired with nice earthiness and strong tannins. Very well structured with nice long finish.
