Locals Wine Tasting » Dark Horse
States we ship to
Dark horse wines shun the easy path. We scour the countryside in search of those small and elusive vineyards where the farmer stands watch over them like a lioness does over her cubs. The wines are treated throughout their creation with the care of a strong parent, leaving them alone when they are heading in the right direction and nudging them back when they stray from the path. In the end they are sturdy and strong, lush with fruit and balanced in their presentation. They have made us proud.

2006 Dark Horse Cabernet Sauvignon
Harvest Fair Silver Medal Winner 2009
This Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon has great Aromas of Cassis and Black Cherry with hints of Cinnamon and Clove. Coming around the first turn Blackberry pushes White Pepper into the rail. It’s anyone's race as Big Oak is passed by Soft Tannins. As they come in to the stretch it’s a Long Velvety Finish. And the winner is…the Dark Horse!
Your price: $ 36.00
