This site tends to yield extremely tannic, long-lived wines. The 2013 Hickinbotham Cabernet Sauvignon boast attractively leafy, tea-like aromas and intense cassis fruit, but it's also ruggedly tannic. Give this full-bodied beast another 6-7 years in the cellar before even touching it.

Very deep garnet-purple in color, the 2009 Hickinbotham Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon reveals an earthy / tarry nose with underlying notes of warm blueberries, blackberry preserves, walnut cake and mocha.
