Dry Creek Vineyard, Dry Creek Valley (Sonoma County, California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

($28):  This Cabernet shows the diversity of wines coming from Dry Creek Vineyard.  Compared to their 2013 Meritage (also reviewed this week), this Cabernet Sauvignon has more of everything — more alcohol (14.5% stated), more power, more concentration and more fruit dominant flavors.  In short, it’s a more muscular wine with less finesse, at least at this stage. If that’s your style — and it is for many people — then this is your kind of wine.  It’s right at home in a noisy steakhouse.
