Laurel Glen Cabernet Sauvignon Lot 44 Sonoma Mountain

Opened and decanted 3+ hours ahead of grilled filet and NYStrip. Dark, murky purple color. Nose brings cherry blossoms, roses, grape hard candy, herbs, and baking spices. The palate is medium-full, round, concentrated, and juicy, bringing an initial high-beam of red cherries, raspberries, and red licorice which cascades into deep, dark blue fruit (plums, rhubarb, blackcurrant, blackberry pie) followed with chocolate, coffee, tobacco, dried leather, and some interesting savory/dark fruit notes on the extend finish.
