"The Herdsman is the culmination of Matchbook’s quest to create a premium Cabernet Sauvignon from the Dunnigan Hills. The vineyards chosen for the 2021 vintage are gravel-heavy sites; the type of soil that produces the most intensely flavored fruit in the appellation. Aromas of chocolate, pipe tobacco, red licorice and toasty oak lead to plush avors of blueberry, blackberry, mocha and barrel spice. The texture is both weighty and smooth with so tannins that lend an elegance to this estate grown Cab. Pair this rich and velvety Cabernet with a well-marbled steak, prime rib or pasta Bolognese."
