2022 Rivers-Marie Cabernet Sauvignon M-Bar Ranch

Owner-winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown said M-Bar Ranch "was probably the one site that was ready to go when the heat hit. It maybe sat through one day and then we grabbed it the next day." The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon M-Bar Ranch boasts almost smoky-herbal nuances on the nose, plus the site's characteristic dark fruit: black cherries and cassis. It's medium- to full-bodied in the mouth, streamlined and smooth, with silky tannins and a long, dark chocolate finish.
