Two winemakers who were already producing some serious Central Coast wines, Curt Schalchlin, founder of Sans Liege, and Andrew Jones, who started Field Recordings, teamed up to launch The Fableist Wine Co. Look for some vibrant blackcurrant fruit, accented with cedar and vanilla, from this 98% J Wilkes 2015 Cabernet.

Dense, dark, saturated garnet in color, this J Wilkes 2015 Cabernet wine offers plush and enticing aromas of currant/cassis, blackberry, ripe cherries dusted with baking chocolate, all supported by echoes of oak toast, vanilla, wet slate, baking spice and the faintest suggestion of eucalyptus/mint.

On the palate, it is ripe and bold with the full-bodied Cabernet character one expects from Paso Robles, but also a sense of restraint rarely found in Cabs bearing a Paso AVA.

The J Wilkes 2015 Cabernet wine has wonderful presence and flavor without being over-wrought. Structured beautifully with medium-density tannins and grip and a refreshing hint of natural acidity born from the cold nights of the Paso Robles Highlands District.

The aromas on this bottling are quite shy, with hints of cedar, dark cherry and loamy soils. There is a dominant cherry-flavored pipe-tobacco taste on the palate, with light acid and tannins.

Classic aromas of blackberry, juicy cassis, ripe plum, hints of toasted oak, violets, and cocoa. Integrated flavors of ripe blackberry, dark-roasted coffee and chocolate, integrated with fine tannins and a long, Just-filled finish.

Color:

Dense and rich dark ruby hue with brilliant clarity.

Aromatics:

Black, plum, currant, cassis, ripe black cherry with hints of cocoa nibs, toffee and cedar.

Palate:

Fruity, juicy and ripe on the attack –medium body plus with a rare combination of dense, delicious fruit notes and also a sense of balance and elegance, some Paso-dust minerality and a long, bright, fruity finish.
