Concannon, Livermore Valley (California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

May 29, 2018

By Robert Whitley

  The Livermore Valley east of San Francisco is an historic but often overlooked California wine appellation.  Concannon’s 2015 reserve Cabernet is a fine example of the heights that Livermore is capable of attaining.  This vintage is richly layered with dark fruits, wood spice, a hint of mocha and smooth, supple tannins.  A platinum award-winner at the 2018 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
