Note di degustazione
Smoke and earth, like cold woodfire ash on wet soil, and some wet oakleaf inform the plum fruit on the nose. With air, a notion of blood orange peel appears. The palate is incredibly concentrated with finest, densest tannins that have started to resolve, relaxing into velvet. This is exquisitely elegant.

The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Tychson Hill is an absolutely profound wine, dense, bluish purple color to the rim with a stunning nose of acacia flowers, graphite, blueberry and blackcurrant fruit. The wine is full-bodied and displays a multi-dimensional, skyscraper-like mouthfeel with no sense of heaviness or weight. An incredibly pure, rich, gorgeously constructed wine from a fabulous terroir, this is a stunner to drink now and over the next 30+ years.
Deep in color, with a perfume that's on the floral side with cassis, licorice, smoke, black cherry and cocoa to add to the complexity. On the palate, the wine is deeply concentrated, rich, plush and polished, with an elegant, refined character in the finish.
Aromas of black fruits, hay, hazelnut and chocolate that move to wet earth and mushroom, then flowers. Sous bois too. Full-bodied, yet caressing and polished. Velvety texture. Flavorful. Toasted and juicy with a violet undertone. Weightlessness in the wine despite being dense.
