Wine Review: This midnight purple colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Galerie is showing very nice right now. It opens with a fragrant ripe blackberry bouquet with hints black licorice and oak. On the palate, it is medium to full bodied, balanced and savory. The flavor profile is an extracted blackberry jam with notes of minerality and black licorice. I also detected notes of boysenberry, refined graphite and vanilla oak with just a hint of espresso and black cherry mixed in. It is a very complex wine. The finish is dry and its well-managed tannins are very nicely extended. Our group really enjoyed this Cab with our steaks at the Taconic in Vermont. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: he 2014 Galerie Knights Valley Latro Cabernet Sauvignon is a dark purple wine with notes of red and black berries, dried herbs, Umami, smashed rocks and white chocolate or mocha. Full palate with big pure tannins yet an elegant, long finish with ripe dark fruit and lingering minerality.
