2019 TURNBULL WINE CELLARS BLACK LABEL CABERNET SAUVIGNON OAKVILLE 750ML

Farm dust blackberries boysenberry and creme de cassis aromatics enthrall. Dense brooding power seeps beneath the drifts of violet and huckleberry. Firm super fine-grained tannins fill the mid palate. Dark cherry and pomegranate reduction co-mingle with blue fruits spice box tobacco and dark chocolate tones to create the perfect accompaniment to the fruit purity.

This bottling is a distinctive selection of individual barrels sourced from our estate vineyards in Oakville. Our winemaker crafts the blend by choosing lots that showcase dark brooding hedonistic characteristics with dusty black fruits and an exotic floral lift. The barrels deliver wine of astounding purity and density.

The fruit source for this flagship blend is always anchored by our Leopoldina Vineyard with additional buttressing and lift from our Fortuna Vineyard. Both are Eastern Oakville sites featuring prolific volcanic red soils that lend richness and texture to the wines. The Leopoldina Vineyard high above the Valley floor gives a dark unctuousness power and structure to the wine. Sitting proudly on the alluvial fan below Leopoldina our Fortuna Vineyard provides textured tannins with dusted black fruit and spice notes.
