Description

The Louis M. Martini 2014 Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon wine reflects the best of the warm, narrow Dry Creek Valley and the hot yet wind-cooled Alexander Valley. Together, these unique features create a rich, superbly balanced Cabernet Sauvignon with copious yet supple tannins. Those tannins make the young wine approachable but will still give it enough texture to age gracefully. This vintage had a long, calm growing season, helping create elevated and concentrated flavors that include wild berries, plum, licorice and mocha. The full-bodied and mouth-coating feel on the palate leads to a long, graceful finish with tones of intense fruit, dried herbs and cedar inside firm structure.

VITICULTURAL NOTES

The grapes for this wine were primarily selected from renowned
vineyards in Sonoma County. For this vintage, we looked to our Frei
Ranch vineyards in Dry Creek Valley AVA and our Barrelli Creek
Vineyard in the Alexander Valley AVA. The 2014 growing season was
another very cooperative one with early bud break, steady temperatures
and long hang time that lasted through an exceptionally long harvest.
The result was vibrant fruit development, ideal tannins and an exquisite
vintage of Cabernet Sauvignon.

WINEMAKER NOTES

Traditional de-stemming and fermentation temperatures between 88°F
and 92°F encouraged the development of rich fruit characteristics and a
plush, full mouthfeel. The careful selection of French and American oak
added sweetness and complexity with layers of vanilla, mocha and
espresso. Average time on oak was 16 months. Touches of Merlot,
Petite Sirah and Cabernet Franc enhance the wine’s roundness and
depth. Blending occurred two months before bottling to allow the blend
to harmonize.
