Wine Profile:
In 1981, Lyeth Estate was founded in Sonoma County by Chip Lyeth. After traveling extensively in his quest for exceptional wines of the world, Chip fell in love with Cabernet Sauvignon, and quickly learned that blending in other varietals added layers of complexity to the overall wine. Over 30 years later, we are still dedicated to Chip’s vision of making outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon.
Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most important components used in creating the Meritage blend upon which Lyeth has built its success. The wine allows Lyeth to showcase this varietal in a way that reveals the individual qualities it contributes. Rich and luscious flavors with balanced acidity and smooth tannins ensure this is a wine that pairs well with food and entices the palate to take another sip.
Tasting Notes:
The Lyeth California Cabernet Sauvignon is has a touch of Petit Verdot for added complexity and depth of flavor. Crimson in the glass, this Cabernet Sauvignon offers expressive aromatics of red cherry, boysenberry-cedar and a touch of minerality and freshness like a seabreeze. A soft and generous palate with flavors of savory spice, bramble raspberry, chocolate-cherry and a hint of lavender on a long, lingering finish.
