2012 Tusk Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (1.5L)

The 2012 Tusk, sourced from Oakville, Prichard Hill, and other Napa sub-appellations, is a project by wine consultant Philippe Melka and partners. The vintage benefited from drought conditions, leading to small berries, thick skins, and high acidity, resulting in well-structured wines with aging potential. The wine is powerful yet elegant, with floral characteristics, and requires decanting at 56°F for 30-45 minutes before serving.
