The Trefethen Vineyards Reserve Cabernet 2012 is a beautifully rich red wine with expressive layers of flavor and texture. On the nose, expect lush aromas of dark fruit and fennel, with notes of lavender. The palate is complex and clean, with flavors of milk chocolate, blackberry, and black pepper. The finish is spicy, well structured, and velvety. This memorable red wine will pair well with lamb, beef, or meaty fish such as tuna or salmon. Thyme, peppercorns, and caramelized onions will highlight the complexity of the wine.
