100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 30β32 months in ultra-tight grain French oak barriques. The wine displays a shimmering, lucid ruby colour. Gorgeous, dusty, dark berry fruit unfolds with an incredible panoply of mulled Christmas spices and warm berry pie compote. Full-bodied and texturally defined, framed by a core of ultra-fine tannins with added dark berry fruit depth. It is a meal unto itself but better paired with roasted meats drizzled in rich plum sauce and accompanied by prosciutto-wrapped figs.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2021 The Dreamer Cabernet Sauvignon bursts with bold cassis, baked plums, and boysenberries notes, followed by hints of camphor, violets, and dark chocolate. The medium to full-bodied palate has a solid frame of bright freshness and firm, grainy tannins supporting the muscular black fruits, finishing long with a lively lift.
Product Description:
βThe Dreamer exudes a deep ruby-brick color to accompany alluring aromas of blueberries and figs, framed by subtle hints of warm vanilla. Medium-bodied palate showcases red currant and Rainier cherry with silky, elegant tannins that lead to a long finish that evokes a poem you wish you had written. This wine is dark and brooding, a wine of elegance, fine and structured tannins, and basically the wine-equivalent of a Wagner piece on a stormy night after unexpectedly making an enormous sum of money. In other words, it is f***ing pure magic with rock bloody solid complexity on a very high level.β -Winemaker
