Winemaker Notes

With its floral aromas mixed with plum and olive, the 2015 John C. Sullenger Cabernet Sauvignon blends juicy and savory notes into an impossible-to-resist perfume. On the palate, dark flavors of black cherry, tobacco, anise and toast are accentuated by a lively yet balanced acidity. These flavors are carried by a rich core of tannins that build on the middle palate, carrying the fruit into a long finish.

Critical Acclaim

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon John C Sullinger Vineyard Oakville is a deep garnet-purple color with a crème de cassis, blackberry pie and eucalypt nose plus hints of Marmite toast, chargrill and lavender. Medium-bodied and elegant with fine-grained, approachable tannins, the fruit is open and ready for business. Yum!

COMMENTARY: I have always had a soft spot for Nickel & Nickel Sullinger Vineyard Cabernet and in 2015 the wine performed admirably. TASTING NOTES: This wine is simply a class Oakville Cabernet. The wine offers crème de cassis and an almost dried floral note in its aromas and flavors. The wine's persistence is outstanding. Pair this complete wine with a savory pork tenderloin.

James Suckling

A subtle nose here of blueberries, spices, a hint of mocha and crème de cassis. Full-bodied with integrated, soft tannins, fresh acidity and a fruity finish. Drink in 2020.
