Tasting note

Diamond Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon should offer blackcurrant, blackberry and dark plum, with cedar and dried herbs adding aromatic detail. The 2021 Coyote Ridge is expected to feel concentrated and firm, its tannins drawing a structured line around ripe fruit while acidity gives the palate freshness. Cassis and gentle spice should persist after the first impression, gradually shifting toward a dry, earthy close.
