2020 Cabernet Sauvignon NVD

The 2020 NVD Cabernet Sauvignon offers up cedary aromas and notes of red berries and cherries. It's medium-bodied and rather open-knit on the palate, maybe even a touch coarse in texture, with a touch of astringency on the finish. I didn't pick up any evidence of smoke taint, but it's clearly not as strong an effort as the forthcoming 2021.
