2023 DAKOTA SHY CABERNET SAUVIGNON T-E-N

TASTING NOTES

Black cherry, plum, grilled herbs and dried mint. A gorgeous TEN that shows off the broad, lush tannin of the valley floor vineyards that are its base. Complex and long lasting on the palate – dried herb, blood orange and black fruits echo over a long, plush finish.

T-E-N

The T-E-N Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of our valley floor vineyard sites. We look to the valley floor for plush texture and fruit – and that is clearly evident in the 2023 T-E-N.
