Winemaker's notes: The 2008 vintage of Roth Cabernet Sauvignon has soft and supple tannin, with plenty of intense, rich black berry, cherries and currant, fruit forward, yet complemented with sweet oak, nutmeg, and vanilla for a long, lush finish. Aged 18 months in French and American oak barrels, it is drinking bright and beautiful now. It will gain greater complexity with two to six years in the cellar.
Roth is a family owned producer, dedicated to crafting Cabernet Sauvignon that is reflective of its origins. Each vintage is made from select vineyard sites within the southern most tip of the Alexander Valley AVA. This “sub-appellation’s” abundant hillsides, diverse elevations, aspects and slopes provide a wide range of micro-climates from which Cabernet Sauvignons of intensity and concentrated varietal character are produced. Roth Cabernet Sauvignon is an expression of its origins. |
