Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Our 1995 Sonoma Cask Cabernet Sauvignon is a dark red color with dusty and ripe blackberry qualities. The flavor displays powerful black cherry fruit framed by good acidity. This wine should age and improve given its high color extraction, fruit complexities and acidity levels. It finishes only moderately astringent and will complement full flavored foods in its youth. Try this wine now with braised or grilled beef, hearty cheeses, or a leg of lamb. If cellared for four to eight years in good conditions, it will mellow and develop woodsy and chocolatey complexities.

Since it’s founded in 1904 by Samuele Sebastiani, Sebastiani Vineyards & Winery has been a Sonoma winemaking tradition. The winery is located in the heart of downtown Sonoma and offers a historic winery with a hospitality center, barrel room with stunning antique redwood tanks, a grand event space and daily tours and tastings.

Planted in 1961, the “Original Vineyard Block” now known as Cherryblock, was planted primarily to Cabernet Sauvignon, which led the winery to create one of Sonoma County’s first varietal Cabernet Sauvignon. Sebastiani has continued its tradition in crafting a variety of Cabernet’s including the iconic Cherryblock, Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon. Utilizing grapes from a variety of premier growing sites created wines with richness and complexity.

Proprietor, Bill Foley, purchased Sebastiani in 2008 and honors the traditions of Sebastiani while embracing the future. Sebastiani Vineyards and Winery continues to create consistent, highly acclaimed wines crafted by Winemaker, David Nakaji.
