TASTING NOTES:
“Complex and yet approachable, the Slingshot North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon has a bouquet of ripe forest fruits, tobacco and vintage leather. The palate is dark and textured with notes of dark chocolate, blueberry, and plum that balance the acidity and chewy tannins.” (AbV 14.5%, pH 3.7, TA 6.0 g/L)

BARRELS:
French oak, 45% new.

TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:
In pro wrestling, the slingshot typically refers to a transitional move that makes use of the top rope around the ring. The wrestler will often pull on the top rope from the outside, then use the momentum from releasing it to help throw them into the ring. This can be combined with a somersault or another aerial maneuver to a devastating effect. Here is an example.
