Kiona Vineyards and Winery 'Heart of the Hill' Estate Bottled Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 Review
This wine is called "Heart of the Hill" and it truly does have heart. The nose is tight and concentrated with notes of pepper embedded in layers of brambles with the slightest hint of oak. The mouthfeel is rich and grippy around the edges with a good medium core of fruit that lingers on the palate. It's only going to get better.
