The inaugural release of Charles Hendricks wine collection.
2004 Hendricks Cabernet Sauvignon
Lewelling Vineyards, Napa Valley
This 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon was exceptional from the beginning… with dense, luxuriant fruit and a wonderfully silky texture. The harvest of 2004 was referred to as the “fast and furious” as the entire Valleys’ fruit came to maturity in the month of September; notably one of the earliest harvests on record in over two decades. A year of small yields and exceptional quality were gloriously bestowed upon us by Mother Nature.

Winemaker Notes:
A Beautiful opaque garnet hue immediately coats the glass, followed by a rush of intoxicating aromas of vanilla, plum, rose and candied cherries with undertones of tar, sweet toast and exotic spices. Immense, silky and lush fruit envelops the palate with an expansive long, lingering gratifying finish.
