Decoy Cabernet Sauvignon - 750ml

From its aromas of vibrant red and blue fruit to its silky tannins and balanced acidity, this is a lush and alluring Cabernet Sauvignon that invites lingering attention. The bouquet opens with bright notes of ruby-red cherry andcurrant woven together with glimpses of blueberry and a touch of plum vigor, all framed by a delicate underlying edge of vanilla and toasted oak. As the glass rests, the wine reveals a layered complexity, where sun-warmed berries mingle with subtle earthiness and a whisper of herbaceous freshness, hinting at its youthful vibrancy while promising drinkability for the coming years.

On the palate, rich flavors of raspberry, ripe plum, and blueberry take center stage, delivering a generous fruit profile that remains lifted and precise rather than heavy. The fruit is supported by finely grained tannins that impart structure without harshness, allowing the wine to glide smoothly across the tongue. Balanced acidity keeps the mid-palate lively, ensuring that each sip carries just enough brightness to prevent any heaviness as the wine unfolds. A gentle, well-integrated oak backbone adds depth and resonance, bringing notes of toasted wood, vanilla, and a touch of baking spice that echoes through the finish.

This Cabernet Sauvignon finishes long and luxurious, with a seamless progression from fruit to subtle spice and oak. The nuanced hints of oak and sweet baking spices linger gracefully, leaving a polished, harmonious impression. Blend: 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot. The Merlot contributes softness and roundness to the mid-palate, enhancing the wine’s overall balance without diminishing the dominant Cabernet character. A refined, approachable example of a classic varietal, capable of aging gracefully yet enjoyable now with decanting.
