Charles Smith Substance Vineyard Collection 'Stoneridge' Cabernet Sauvignon

Coming from a terrific site on the Wahluke Slope, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Stoneridge is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon raised all in French oak. Classic Cabernet notes of plum, cassis, hoisin sauce and graphite all give way to a full-bodied, concentrated red that has an undeniable chalky minerality on the finish. It's impressive today, but it will keep for at least a decade.
