Granite Hills Left Block 2018 750ml Bottle

Granite Hills Left Block 2018 is a hillside Cabernet blend that emphasizes density and structure from the Left Block vineyard. It delivers dark fruit, graphite notes, and spice, with refined oak integration. A wine built for cellaring, it rewards decanting now for immediate grip and reveals more layers with time. Pairs well with hearty steaks and braised dishes, or can anchor a collector’s cellar. Tasting Notes - Nose: blackberry, cassis, black cherry, graphite, cedar, vanilla, espresso - Palate: full-bodied; flavors of blackcurrant, plum, and dark cherry; cocoa and espresso accents; firm yet refined tannins; balanced acidity - Finish: long, persistent with lingering dark fruit, spice, and light tobacco/toasty oak - Pairings: grilled ribeye, herb-crusted lamb, mushroom risotto - Aging: shows well with patience; benefits from several years of cellaring with proper storage
