$356.98 $303.43
The 2012 Salvestrin 3D Cabernet from Dr. Crane Vineyard is a beauty. Notes of wet pebbles, crème de cassis, blackberry, and earth jump from the glass of this cuvée that represents 350 cases. The wine is rich, full, complete, with beautifully sweet fruit, ripe tannin, and a multi-layered mouthfeel. This is a terrific wine to drink over the next 15 or more years.
The 2012 Salvestrin 3D Cabernet Estate Three-D represents the cumulative effect of a great growing season, an exceptional historic vineyard site, and over 80 years of experience growing grapes on this exceptional land.
Crafted from a handful of carefully selected barrels this wine displays the essence of Salvestrin farming and winemaking in each bottle. Its beautiful nose reveals aromas of baking spice, ripe black cherries, and toasted oak.
On the palate, you’ll find mouth-coating ripe red fruit, plum, and delicate tannins. The finish, which seems to go on indefinitely, leaves you with flavors of raspberry and dark chocolate that are framed by toasted wood. Enjoy now, or over the next 10-15 years.
A 100% varietal wine from the core of St. Helena, this vineyard-designate expands on the palate in juicy, leather waves, showcasing coconut macaroon, cassis, and kirsch in equal measure. Full-bodied and concentrated in the ripeness of the vintage, it caps off on the palate in black leather and tobacco.
Mouthcoating, this is a full-bodied wine with small amounts of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Tar, leather, cedar, and black cherry stand out as characteristics, with added weight from the heavier, darker elements of chocolate and oak. Drink now through 2022.
