North Carolina Wine TV Review:
The Cellar 4201 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon is far different than the white we had previously reviewed from this winery. Green grape stem smell on this nose is not pleasant, however there is strawberry and green pepper on the nose as well. In the mouth the wine is flat and musky. The Cabernet, like many others from North Carolina, is a disappointment. It is not bad, but it is not tasty.

Interview with Donna, owner of Cellar 4201
About Cellar 4201:
Owners and Vintners, Greg Hutchins and Donna Carlyle Hutchins, established the vineyard in the spring of 2003—planting one acre of Chardonnay and one acre of Merlot. The next year, three additional acres were added, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and more Chardonnay.
With the focus at Cellar 4201 being on producing quality fruit through extensive pruning, we plan to remain a limited-case producton vineyard with the majority of sales of our hand-crafted wines occuring in the tasting room. This will allow people to come visit, see the gorgeous vineyards and enjoy some wonderfully unique wines. We think that personal touch carries over into our wines.
