Hailing from the cool and foggy climate for the Russian River Valley in Sonoma County, this beautiful medium-bodied wine was grown slowly to build intense flavors over time. This wine was aged in French oak and displays a beautiful balance of fruit, oak and liveliness on the palate and exhibits lush mango and toasted almond.

Cab is king, and this vintage is a testament to its reign. Our flagship wine showcases bold structure, deep color, and striking presence. Aromas of blackberry, kirsch, and cedar emerge over subtle notes of graphite. On the palate, it is dense and concentrated, with rich, sweet fruit and layered complexity. This is a powerful wine that will benefit from decanting or time in the glass, gradually revealing greater depth and nuance with every sip.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha Sigma Phi - Mystic Circle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53936743940464,"sku":"CG-MCCS21NV","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/2395\/7658\/files\/mystic-circle-delta-beta-XI-cab.png?v=1782182510"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.wineshopathome.com\/collections\/alpha-sigma-phi-mystic-circle.oembed","provider":"WineShop At Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
