Just as unique as the vintage its born from, the 2022 Brasas Cabernet Sauvignon arrives with authority and nuance. Aromas of dark fruit, black licorice and bitter chocolate stew in the glass and vault toward the nose as its swirled. At first sip, tinges of berry compote, black plum and boysenberry slowly creep onto the palate while undertones of clove, white pepper and toasted oak reinforce the wine’s sturdy presence. The palate rounds circuitously with the warmth of baked fruit and toasted cherry pit. The wine’s potency impeccably balanced by bright acidity and polished tannins. A long and detailed finish, the wine lingers as slight hints of volcanic minerality play out.
