Note di degustazione
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Weitz Vineyard captures all of the mystique of this site on the hills of Eastern Oakville. Beautifully layered and complex, the Weitz offers up a compelling mélange of macerated black cherry, menthol, licorice, chocolate, spice and leather melded together in a deep, beautifully layered wine that will drink well with minimal cellaring, provided it is opened well in advance.

The deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Weitz Vineyard rocks up with ready-for-business scents of stewed plums, blackberry preserves, ripe blackcurrants and kirsch plus suggestions of bay leaves, pencil shavings and iron ore. Full-bodied, the palate delivers mouth-coating black fruit preserves layers with a black pepper and herbs undercurrent and sturdy frame of grainy tannins, finishing with an earthy lift.
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Weitz Vineyard comes from a site in the northern part of the valley and more red, volcanic soils. It reminds me of the 2016 with its iron/iodine-like character as well as beautiful mulled red and black fruits, Asian spices, chocolate, and loamy earthy aromas and flavors. This big, rich, opulent beauty has sweet tannins, a rocking mid-palate, and a great finish. It’s already impossible to resist yet has two decades of longevity ahead of it.
