The Lexington Gist Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon, from the Santa Cruz Mountains, is generally well-regarded as a bold, structured, mountain-grown Cab with notes of dark fruit (blueberry, boysenberry), floral hints, cedar, spice, and sometimes espresso, offering great value and complexity, though some vintages might need decanting or aging to integrate tannins and acidity, showcasing distinctive briary characteristics of the region.
