Tasting note

Donati Family Vineyard's 2015 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon should lean into cassis, blackberry and plum, with a mild herbal scent. A full palate is expected, its ripe fruit supported by sturdy tannins and a thread of acidity that keeps the texture defined. The peak period ended in 2025, although the broader drinking range lasts to 2031. The finish should be savory and gently drying, with dark berry and cedar notes lingering.
