Founded in 1985, Swanson's mission is to strive to elevate cuisine with wines that marry the impeccable quality of Napa Valley fruit with the sensual character of old-world winemaking traditions. This Swanton Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon offers generous aromas of plums and cassis on the nose, with a touch of cedar that elegantly underlies the rich dark fruits on the nose. The wine is rich and full bodied on the palate, the acidity is supple, supporting the ripe plum, dark cherry fruit flavors. Alongside these you have hints of cocao, a touch of espresso bean and slight vanilla. The smooth tannins follow through to drive the finish, giving longevity to the palate.
