Summer Sunset

2005 Calvert County, Maryland Cabernet Franc 40%, Cabernet Sauvignon 60%

Hailing from the charming Calvert County in Maryland, this 2005 vintage presents a delightful harmony of flavors. The wine exhibits a full-bodied profile, complemented by a high acidity that adds brightness and vibrancy to each sip. With a pronounced fruit intensity, the notes of dark berries and cherries mingle seamlessly with subtle earthy undertones. The tannins are notable yet refined, providing structure without overwhelming the palate. This wine is bone-dry, making it an exceptional choice for those who appreciate a clean, crisp finish. Patuxent River Summer Sunset is a lovely expression of the region, reflecting both the uniqueness of its terroir and the artistry of local winemaking.
