    The 2019 The Gimblett is a Cabernet-led blend that bursts with fresh black currant and violet aromas, speaking of the two major varieties in play: Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, respectively. This young mid-weight red isn't just fruit; it has savory and violet characters, and 20 months maturing in French oak (53% new) contributed vanilla and cedar notes that play a supporting role to the ripe fruit flavors. The conclusion is dry and savory, with young, grippy tannins and gently refreshing acidity providing a lightly chewy finish that needs time to mellow.
