Kiona Vineyards and Winery Estate Bottled Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 Review
Kiona shows us a uniquely Red Mountain expression of this variety. A concentrated nose of brandied brambles, forest floor, an underlayer of pepper, and an overarching plot of oak. The palate has a slight savory note with more judicious oak and a great concentration of fruit and supportive acidity.
