Note di degustazione
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon continues to become more and more refined with time in bottle. Silky, wonderfully perfumed and nuanced, the 2016 is exceptionally beautiful. This is such a striking and vivid wine with tons of mountain character and pedigree to burn.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon sashays out of the glass with compelling notes of warm black plums, blackberry preserves, blackcurrant pastilles and Black Forest cake plus touches of chocolate mint, cedar chest and underbrush. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is laden with juicy black fruit, framed by fine-grained tannins and loads of freshness, finishing long and minty.
The tightness and linear nature to this balanced and beautiful wine are so attractive. Bright and dense with lots of cabernet focus. Love the tannin and fruit balance. Drink after 2022, but already a beauty.
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon shows just how far the estate has progressed in just the last few years. Powerful and explosive, with tremendous aromatic intensity, the 2016 is a rapturously beautiful wine. Dark cherry, mocha, bittersweet chocolate, new leather, spice, sage, and lavender add layers of understated nuance and complexity in this riveting, stunningly dramatic mountain Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2016 shuts down quickly after opening, which is probably a very good thing for its aging prospects. The 2016 is an extraordinary and deeply moving wine from Cornell.
