Verdad 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Paso Robles 750ml

The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon, from vineyards in Paso Robles, is terrific. Bright and punchy, with good depth, the 2020 shows good energy in the restrained style that is Louisa Lindquist's style. Vibrant, red-fleshed fruit, mint, spice, lavender and dried herbs linger. Dollops of Petit Verdot round out the blend nicely. The 2020 spend 18 months in oak, 40% new.
