Pulido-Walker's renowned winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown is really pleased with the 2015 vintage. The 2015 Pulido-Walker Cabernet Sauvignon from Panek Vineyard is a return to the generous fruit profile he expected from this site. " Customarily we see a mix of red and black fruit in wines from this valley floor vineyard, showing qualities like caramelized sugar and maple syrup. However, the combination of a short crop and warm, dry growing season tends to produce wine in which black fruits predominate. We see this clearly in the 2015 Panek Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, exhibiting more black fruit than is typical for this site. The 2015 Panek has all the concentration of the similarly dark 2013 vintage, while the trademark fruit-forward quality of the 2015 exponentially increases the pleasure factor." - Thomas Brown, winemaker
