2023 On Q Appassionata

Opens with expressive aromas of ripe blackberry, cassis, and violet, layered with subtle vanilla and toasted oak. Full-bodied and velvety on the palate, it delivers dark cherry and plum flavors accented by mocha, supported by well-defined acidity that brings energy and balance. Beneath the richness lies a core of intense, dark-fleshed fruit framed by mineral nuance, with emerging notes of cedar, tobacco, and cocoa carrying through a long, lingering finish. A complete and compelling Oakville Cabernet with both immediate appeal and depth to unfold over time.
