East Side Crossing 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon

The East Side Crossing 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon from Lodi opens with a deep ruby hue edged in purple, hinting at its richness and vibrancy. Aromatically, it’s a lively blend of ripe boysenberry, black currant, and delicate bramble, lifted by sweet cedar and warm baking spices. Notes of cocoa nibs, creamed soda, and espelette pepper add intrigue, while a touch of vanilla crème fraîche rounds out the nose with softness. On the palate, bright acidity and velvety tannins frame flavors of Bing cherry, lingonberry, candied orange peel, and allspice, creating a mouthwatering finish with a gritty texture that adds depth. Aged for 18 months in French oak and blended with Petite Sirah and Merlot, this wine offers both structure and charm, making it a versatile pairing for prime rib, grilled portabella mushrooms, or a well-curated charcuterie board.
