TASTING NOTE:
I loved Kobalt’s 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon. At 100% of the varietal, this 490-case cuvée made by Mark Herold has an opaque purple color, notes of pen ink, blackberry and cassis, cedar wood, a touch of toasty oak and plenty of forest floor in a full-bodied, pure, concentrated style that should drink beautifully for 20-25 or more years.

WINEMAKER'S NOTE:
Kobalt Cabernet Sauvignon (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) is fabulous. General qualities include notes of blackberry liqueur, violet, spice and vanilla mixed with charcoal, white flowers, sweet oak and underlying wet rocks, giving it minerality and additional complexity. It’s full-bodied, dense and very concentrated with a blockbuster finish of ripe integrated tannins that showcase the intensity of ripe black cherry, spicy notes of toasted vanilla and stone fruit.
