Reserve

2004 Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon

The Rodney Strong Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2004 vintage is a stunning expression of Sonoma County’s terroir. This full-bodied red wine boasts a rich, deep ruby color that captivates the eye. On the palate, it showcases an impressive complexity with pronounced acidity that balances the lush fruitiness beautifully. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing layers of dark berries, plums, and hints of cocoa, complemented by subtle notes of spice and toasted oak. The tannins are firm yet refined, providing a solid structure that enhances the wine's longevity. As it unfolds, the wine reveals a lovely dryness that invites another sip, making it an excellent companion for hearty dishes or an indulgent evening of savoring exceptional wine.

Region:


Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
