2018 Mazzocco Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon ($18)

This Cabernet Sauvignon is produced by Mazzocco in the Dry Creek Valley of Sonoma Valley.

Perched on a saddle between the acclaimed valleys of Dry Creek and Alexander, Mazzocco is renowned for Zinfandels but also produces Chardonnay, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon.

This Cabernet Sauvignon from Mazzocco is medium ruby in color with aromas of plum and black cherry. On the palete, this wine has flavors of dark cherry, firm tannin and a light, slightly tart, finish.

This 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is young and could benefit from a bit more time in the bottle. But, if you open it now, like I did, then give it an hour or two in a decanter to help soften the tannins.
