Cain Five Red Blend - 2009 (750ml)

Winemaker's Notes:

The 2009 Cain Five is in a beautiful place right now. Thirteen years after the harvest, this wine has just begun to acquire that soft patina from bottle age. What began with a vibrant herbal note of the wild “garrigue” of the Cain Vineyard has now melded into sweet plums and cigar box, now smooth, soft, and round. Look for a bit of earthiness and some lovely floral notes of roses and jasmine. This wine works well across the spectrum: from fish to fowl, and all the way to Wagyu. No need to decant.
