Corison Winery 2006 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
California, United States
Winemaking Notes
Budbreak came very late in 2006 due to cold, rainy weather that continued well into spring. By early June, the sun finally came out and the vines began to bloom and set fruit. Even, cool weather arrived at last with August (in the nick of time for flavor and color development) and continued through a very late harvest for a nearly perfect ripening season.

Tasting Notes
Effusive aromas of ripe boysenberries, black plums, chocolate and nutmeg spice jump out of the glass. Juicy, mouth-filling flavors of berry jam, cassis and cardamom follow with velvet tannins. Classic. - Cathy Corison
90 pts - Stephen Tanzer “Boysenberry, dark chocolate and violet aromas, with hints of leather and game. Juicy and moderately dense, with sweet dark berry flavors ... In an elegant, restrained style. Finishes with firm, dusty tannins and good persistence.”
