2017 Spitfire Cabernet
Gold Medal, 2020 Sunset Intl Wine Competition
This wine personifies good old American Cabernet. Enticing aromas of cherry and vanilla give way to ripe fig and plum. Two years in American oak have softened the palate, making this a very drinkable Oakville Cabernet.
Club Price: $42.40/bottle
