Nickel & Nickel Tench Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
Nickel and Nickel Winery is all about single varietal, single vineyard wines and the 2013 Tench Vineyard is a beautiful Cabernet from the folks at Far Niente. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Planted in 1973, Tench Vineyard is situated on the eastern edge of Oakville along the Silverado Trail next to the Screaming Eagle vineyard. The area’s red, rocky soils of clay and volcanic rock have produced many famous Napa Valley Cabernets. Nickel & Nickel produces Cabernet from just four acres of this late-ripening vineyard with northwest exposure. The grapes rapidly develop color and flavor as temperatures rise and harvest approaches.

Drinking the 2013 in 2018. Deep dark rich color. Thick legs that stay on the glass. Rich bouquet, full of cassis, cherry, plum and berry with an earthy finish. Smooth flavor with very low tannins. Big flavor, full of cherry, blackberry and plum with oak on the finish. Great wine!

Low Fruit, vines grown on volcanic soil. Almost has a beautiful ash or smoke quality emerging from it, this is a wine that should age for a while, tannins are nice and exposed.
